Hokey skateboards.

The whole image is whack but their decks are a1
Shame they cost 20 quid more than competitors and I feel like a teenager skating them

Never been a fan. Jason Dill is a kook and AVE is overrated. People dickride them, Supreme, and that whole northeastern scene way too hard. The skaters have talent no doubt, but their knees-down hyper zoom filming and edits are simply intolerable. Not to mention that the name itself makes me cringe.

Have to second the filming because people have been copying it and will stop watching videos with that style of shooting

I heard from a couple of likeminded gentleman at a Wu Tang Clan concert recently that Dill claims the streets, even though he really isn't really from the streets. I'll try to forward you their instagram handles in case you want to dig a little deeper on that.

It doesn't matter how nice their boards are or any of their merch, i wouldn't touch any of it, just based on their existing customer base. Spoilt kids buying dunks with mama's credit card, perpetual bad attitude, who turn up at the park to just sit on the board looking depressed. I swear actual skating is their least favourite part of the image.
Pricing your boards 1/3 higher than other brands perpetuates that customer base.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Fucking Awesome. The graphics are extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of Aesthetics the graphics will go over a typical skater's head. There's also Dill's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these graphics, to realize that they're not just cool- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Fucking Awesome truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the beauty in Fucking Awesome’s existential skate film "Randy Farkus" which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Aidan Mackey's genius unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools... how I pity them. And yes by the way, I DO have a Fucking Awesome tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

i want to disagree with you, but after skating about 10 of them and just recently going back to polar boards at the beginning of 2022, i fucking hate the steep nose now.

Terrible shape and not paying that much for a deck. I get inflation is an issue but will take my money elsewhere

I've bought no F.A. clothing but three F.A. decks, though only as wall bloards. I agree with Frank that it would have been great if they had left their abbreviated moniker ambiguous like S.M.P. did so we could have come up with our own name(s).

It's kinda hard to keep it ambiguous when the first several years the only thing the company made was allover print hoodies with FUCKING AWESOME printed a million times on them.

I skated two of them, recently switched back and also realised I also don´t like the shovel nose anymore. As for their image I don´t really care too much, it´s quality wood and Louie and Gino are on so I can´t complain. Since I live in a rural area and nowadays mainly skate skateparks I guess there is not as much cool guy shit as in larger cities. No too cool for school FA kids round here.

Agreed. Tired of seeing FA everywhere I go.
-Boards are horrible quality- what are they Crailtap wood!?
- Sellouts: everywhere I go I’m inundated with FA billboards, ads on my social media…stores opening up now in TWO cities? Wtf. Like Walmart now. When I’m at the local all the kids riding FA make sure to do tricks infront of my face , about 1 in from me, so I can distinguish their scraped up boards with square noses from every other bbs brand of board with square noses- that’s how I know everyone has Fa boards.
- Awful team: Not only we have to watch Mr. Redhead Fancy Pants Manual fest and Swan Pabs every video…but Louie Lopez? AVE?! Tyshawn Jones?! Scrubs. What is it 2018!? Louie always looks so angry and pissed when he skates though, so he fits their image.
- Videos. Zoom fests! Dancing on Thin Ice was just zoom city! Just like their award winning video, ‘Blessed’
- Dill? Can’t even name one clip that guy was in. Loser.
Fuck Fa. I went into that store in NYC a few weeks ago to check it out. Got harassed by management. Would not leave me alone. ‘What size would you like?’ ‘Nice skateboard’ ‘would you like some stickers!?’
ASSHOLES. It made me want to give my mom her cc back and say ‘NO WAY!’
But I wanted to look cool sitting on my board not doing anything at the skatepark looking angry. So I stayed quiet. The hoodie I purchased for $1000 doesnt even say ‘fucking awesome’ on it. Wtf. Bastards. Time to listen to crustpunk and sulk.

Pricing your boards 1/3 higher than other brands perpetuates that customer base.
is that not in part due to covid/shipping/taxes/etc? i can only speak from experience of the one hockey board i skated in 2018 but it was £65 which was the same cost as any other US deck at the time. now they're up for £75-80 which is far too steep for one damn deck, but other brands ie doomsayers, 917, habitat, and a few others are also at that price point.
-
I don't like their boards personally, I hate that fat nose trend that's going on right now. I know they were using PSstix wood for a while, didn't like that. Their hypebeast fanbase is kinda lame. All that said, I still enjoy their content it usually gets me pretty stoked. Louie and Tyshawn are easily two of the best out RN. And a top selling board company owned by two OG pros in this day and age is cool, no matter what you think of either of them. And correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think they sell to the likes of Zumiez, CCS, Skate Warehouse, etc.

i have never once bought their boards or clothes or supported them financially in any way. but they have provided me with some very entertaining content. i cant really complain.
-
I've had 2 Gino boards, but I wasn't into the shapes (square nose/tails) and I like smaller boards anyways. Have not/would not buy any of their gear...not into their image/gimmick/whatever you want to call it. I'm pretty sure that a 45 year old skater is not their target demographic anyway (except Dill, AVE & Gino themselves that is). I'll watch the skating though
-
well ive been an indulger of FA since they had the
shitty less forced site with the crucifix flag graphic tee and the one of the acrobat giving himself head circa 2012 - so heres my take
their deisgn choices now are so sad compared to what I would say was their most enjoyable period with a small website and the only shop that had them was preme It seemed like dill was just making clothes he would wanna sport here and there. Of course who doesnt want to grow but everything watered down quick and theres just a bunch of junk on the side
I really wanna point blame at whoever they became buisness partners with but its all behind a curtain
its so cringe when you over saturate like how they do now. a perfect example is the sean cyborg graphic
did they really think the demand for that shit would enough for 8 colorways on decks hoodies AND shirts jfc might as well make another allover print pant
switched up from vintage aesthetic porn and drug suicide ads to making whatever this is supposed to be
PS - if anyone has the idiocracy dvd that came with the kev terp board ill buy it off of you I lost mine :(

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Fucking Awesome. The graphics are extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of Aesthetics the graphics will go over a typical skater's head. There's also Dill's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these graphics, to realize that they're not just cool- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Fucking Awesome truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the beauty in Fucking Awesome’s existential skate film "Randy Farkus" which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Aidan Mackey's genius unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools... how I pity them. And yes by the way, I DO have a Fucking Awesome tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.
You are giving Dill WAY too much credit, when the logo itself isn’t even an original font, how can you honestly believe all that to be true?

You are giving Dill WAY too much credit, when the logo itself isn’t even an original font, how can you honestly believe all that to be true?

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Fucking Awesome. The graphics are extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of Aesthetics the graphics will go over a typical skater's head. There's also Dill's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these graphics, to realize that they're not just cool- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Fucking Awesome truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the beauty in Fucking Awesome’s existential skate film "Randy Farkus" which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Aidan Mackey's genius unfolds itself on their computer screens.

Oh shit I thought we was a FA aficionado

It is disappointing they became poor man’s supreme, the shorter wheelbases really fit my proportions and I’ve always felt good on one.

Skating a bunch of FA boards made me hate steep concave and realize girl is the best to ever do it.

Someone left an FA board at the bushes at the local spot on Monday. I left a hoodie with stains on it and some clapped out Blazers yesterday. The FA deck was still there today haha. Brand new without grip and no one wanted it.

Like most things in skating it started off cool and still isn’t uncool yet since they get new people. I personally didn’t like the nak board I had before so I would never let fa tax me for an extra $20 and even more dislike for all the people that think wearing it at my local surburban area that think they are edgy. It’s also kinda just too hype for me like it’s not a zumiez brand but sometimes the people I see wearing it make me feel like it should be cause people love marketing and fitting into molds

fucking awful take
It went over your head.

I think the 8.25 deck is just something a lot of people are into, and can just buy the more tolerable graphics.

What’re we doing? Talking about Dill….

hockey is alright though, right?

I still think it’s funny that when FA announced they were gonna become a board brand, Slap collectively proclaimed that it would never work , the name was too stupid, dill was an idiot, and it wouldn’t last 6 months, and then they proceeded to be the best selling brand directly out of the gate

I was at the local indoor skatepark, I guess the winter before covid, and there was a young teenage lad skating wearing these all over print FA sweatpants, and some type of FA sweatshirt, with some all over print on it.
They were the goofiest looking clothes and he looked kind of like a clown, but hey, I used to be with it, but then they changed want "IT" was.

I don't really hate FA and hockey aight I used to actually like the shape but paying 20 bucks more for a shape is wild especially when like 3 to 4 other companies make that shape now.
To be fair, seems like an overall price increase. I've seen Baker decks online for 70-75 recently and even DLX is up to 65-70 for non team decks. Is it just me or is it an overall generator price increase? PS seems to only have a small increase and China made (e.g. Dwindle and Crail) havent really gone up at all.
Edit: just checked and both locals I frequent sell FA for around the same price as Baker
