Skateboarding, clothing brand, helping / building communities, and vocals for a metal band. On this episode we speak with Colin Trombley who I was fortunate enough to meet recently skateboarding over my head while I played guitar in one of my upcoming music videos! Colin and I talk about what it’s like to be a pro in your way, content fatigue, building a brand around what you love, mentors impact and much more. Music, creative, business, and skate life in this one.
