    Podcast DescriptionIn this episode of The Bigspin Podcast, I sat down with Charlie from Chicken Fingerboards. Charlie has been making fingerboards for nearly a decade, but it’s only been within the last couple of years that he’s turned that passion into a full on fingerboard brand..! Until just a few weeks ago, Charlie was based in Los Angeles before making the move to the Pacific Northwest and now settling in the Seattle area. We talk about growing up and skateboarding in Southern California, his long history of deck making, and what ultimately pushed him to take the leap from making boards to building a brand around them! We also pick Charlie’s brain about his approach to making decks and what goes into producing some of the highest-quality boards in the scene. We get his thoughts on brand identity and overall aesthetic, what it takes to grow a brand in the modern fingerboarding scene, and his plans to travel and connect with more of the community! From his history as a deck maker to the future of Chicken Fingerboards, this episode is a look at what it takes to turn years of experience and passion into something much bigger!

    The Find Some Time (Fingerboard Magazine) Interview

    In this episode I sit down with Mitch, the Australian founder of Find Some Time, a Fingerboard magazine built around slowing things down and telling meaningful stories about people and brands who have spent years building up the fb community! We talk about Mitch’s early days in Fingerboarding and skateboarding, coming from a time when the scene, YouTube, and the internet were all still in their infancy. Throughout his journey, one thing has remained consistent: his positive attitude and his commitment to pushing his local community forward! We dive deep into the philosophy behind Find Some Time fb mag and why Mitch intentionally chose to take a different approach from the fast-paced world of modern content. The magazine doesn’t follow a monthly release schedule or chase constant output. Instead, it focuses on thoughtful, high-quality stories that give people and their experiences the time and attention they deserve. Mitch also breaks down the entire process of creating a magazine from start to finish, from finding the stories worth telling to putting together the final product. We talk about what goes into creating something with real substance, get some details about the upcoming second issue, and explore what it means to document and celebrate the incredible people who make up the Fingerboard community.

    The Bullgod Interview

    On this episode of The Bigspin, we sit down with Ricardo, the owner and founder of fingerboard brand Bullgod, all the way from Portugal. What started as a love for skateboarding and skate culture at a young age eventually turned into a mission to make fingerboarding more accessible for everyone. Ricardo opens up about growing up in Portugal, discovering fingerboarding, and realizing early on that a lot of products were simply too expensive for kids like him to afford. Instead of accepting that, he built Bullgod around the idea that fingerboarding should be for everybody.. no matter their financial situation! Even as Bullgod has grown into a respected brand offering high-end pro products, ramps, and now even skateboard gear, Ricardo has stayed true to his roots by always keeping affordable options available. We also dive into the Portugal fingerboard scene, the evolution of Bullgod over the last seven years, his plans for the future, and the mindset that’s helped him stay humble through it all! The craziest part? This episode almost never happened. Ricardo happened to be visiting the US, pulled up to Sunday Sessions, and through pure chance we decided to film this conversation just one day before he flew back home to Portugal. A genuine conversation with one of the most down-to-earth people in fingerboarding! Support Bullgod!  https://www.bullgodfb.com/ Support the show
