I was never the biggest FA fan but I was a huge fan of the team in the early days… AVE, Dill having a fifth or sixth wind and skating to glaciers of ice, Dylan., Terp… it’s absolutely insane to see what happened to FA. Never would have expected that it would become what it is in now ten years ago.

Having a company with lax producing standards was seen as disruptive and punk in 2014. Not so much now. Also I know AVE still skates but FA was always Dill's creative endeavor and him not skating or even just out on sessions is a huge demotivating factor for a team dynamic. I wonder if he is even aware Sean left. No public acknowledgement of it after that letter wishing well to Tyshawn and Nak (who publicly shat on your brand for being lazy) was shady.

Hahah so true, I think he was trying to keep the porch light on for Tyshawn if king skateboards didn’t pan out, maybe Sean leaving felt more like a slap to dill because losing an original member who embodies the company at its most vulnerable time felt more fucked up to him .

Fucking Awesome was and is fucking wack. Without Dill’s Supreme connection that shit wouldn’t have lasted 3 years.

That company should have stayed in 2006. It was only known because Kanye wore a Fucking Awesome all-over print hoodie on stage during the mid 00s streetwear era when all-over print hoodies were crack to the types of people willing to wait in line at Supreme for days to buy a fucking sweatshirt or dunks…

Good business move for Dill tho cause I’m sure he made more $ on this shit this time around than he ever could have hawking tees and hoodies for maybe 2 or 3 years before hypebeasts moved on.

Stayed in 2006? Based off your posts I get the impression you're between the age of 12 and 19. What kind of alternate reality do you live in? Fucking Awesome was not even an idea in 2006.
You are very passionate I can tell, and that's respectable.
But, you're also pretty uninformed, and that combined with passion, is dangerous and annoying.

Maybe you should just read more and contribute your thoughts less for the time being.

I didn't know FA had been around that long either, but I had my doubts about your inference of his age vs. him using the word, "wack." I say it all the time myself and my nephew makes fun of me for it.

You cats are the young ones… Back in 05-06 when Dill was cracked out and still living in NYC he created Fucking Awesome. It was some spontaneous shit and it had nothing to do with skateboarding. He dropped like a handful of T-shirts and a couple of hoodies and closed up shop. It was very brief and underground… yet sought after because of the hype…

[close]

I always thought FA was not any kind of hit and just failed to launch the first time around. This wasn’t based on any actual knowledge though…just assumed at the time since it blew.

It was some small shit. I’m telling you like a run or two of hoodies and shirts. Kanye was wearing the gear and everyone wanted one of those hoodies. This was the beginning of the “hypebeast” era. So many streetwear complanies came and went during that time and Fucking Awesome was one of them. Like I said Dill was living in NYC at the time and was on drugs so who knows why he didn’t cash in the 1st time.

Somebody show work lurker the FA x Etnies from the mid 2000’s.

[Lowcalcium]

I miss Alien. That was the best era.

When Alien and Habitat were in full swing and I was riding a 7.43 Brian Wenning deck.

Yeah that was a very good year.

We’d ride in limousines…all the perfumed hair

[Shortys Hardware]

Or any interview where Dill talks about making FA tshirts back in 2001...

[Yonnycage]

On an unrelated note, reading these past couple of pages reaffirms exactly why I love this place. It reminds me of a forgotten, dusty corner of an ancient library. The retention of such obscure information as a fucking Etnies x FA collab from the brand’s beta stage in the mid 2000’s is so fascinating to me. The rest of the world forgot that it forgot that shit but some of you scribes keep those miniscule footnotes in our history polished and for that I’m grateful.


Yes I’m fucking stoned.

Not in any old interview, must be recent… and if he was they weren’t for sale to the public… u guys don’t realize how small FA was mid 00s. It was some shirts printed in a garage and a website type of shit. This was Skate More era Dill.

While we’re all nostalgic . Anyone have any idea of what’s going with habitat? Is it alive is it dead? No one on the team ever tags them it’s like a weird after thought that any of them have a board sponsor. I was stoned and scrolled through all of sucius posts the other day and he’s only ever tagged them twice in the last decade. Did that twin peaks and bobs burgers collab back in 2017-18 really inject them with enough cash to stay afloat the last 7 years? Is dyrdek still just paying the bills out of graciousness for giving him a career? What’s going on over there.
