    Listen In: Mike Carroll

    Step behind the scenes of our blog editorial with the latest addition to our Listen In audio series. When Mike Carroll stopped by the shop last summer, we connected at the meet-and-greet event and arranged to speak before the end of the year. We landed on a “First & Last” interview format, and used this structure to explore his many decades in the game: his storied past beginning in the early days of San Francisco visitation and Embarcadero localisation through to his busy present, where he is just as dedicated to contributing to and supporting our culture. It was an honour to speak to one of streetskating's true pioneers, and we’re happy to share the results with you here.   You can read the full interviews with video and photo support on our blog and shop with us for all your skateboarding needs at slamcity.com.

The discussion dips into New York skating past and present, favourite footage, his new album, life on tour, over a decade with Converse, the making of his latest shoe, skateboarding today, parting ways with Supreme, some golden Jason Dill advice, and more… You can read the full interview with video and photo support on our blog and shop with us for all your skateboarding needs at slamcity.com.

    Listen In: Josh Kalis

    Welcome to the debut episode of Listen In. We’re kicking things off with a conversation we’re genuinely hyped to share: an in-depth sit-down with Josh Kalis, a true professional, whose influence has shaped skateboarding for more than three decades. Josh has been a constant source of inspiration and someone we’re proud to have worked with over the years. So when DGK set out to celebrate his 30 years as a pro, we jumped at the chance to help mark the moment with an interview that delves into his journey.
