PostSubject: SMALLTLK.COM (NEW AWESOME FB BLOG)   SMALLTLK.COM (NEW AWESOME FB BLOG) EmptyThu Sep 18, 2014 1:48 am




While on the Airflo Tour, me, Andrew Hill, and Geoff Rasco had the idea to start a good fingerboard blog that actually wrote opinions and meaningful content.  All of the blogs now just post famous fingerboarder's videos and product/company updates from the same 3 companies.  It gets really old to read the same thing everyday (if they even post).

So, we came up with the idea to have multiple writers for the blog.  So far we have Mallory Curtis (me), Andrew Hill, Mike Schneider, John Cowart, Joel Hartnet, and Jay Linehan.  We feel like several different viewpoints is something we haven't seen since the Fbweekly days.  We all have different opinions on things, we will be going to different events, we are fans of different fingerboarders, and we have different writing styles.  Small Talk will have all sorts of different posts, which pretty much means we will post whatever we feel like and more awesomeness for you guys.

I really hope you guys will enjoy the blog, as much as we are having writing for it.

The first real post was just posted, so it'd be cool to hear your guys' feedback!

Also, follow @smalltlk on instagram for fun!

Excellent idea! The multiple writer format should bring a broad diversity of articles and more frequent content than with an individual contributor.

the post about the stupid griptape trend was great, its such a pretentious, hipster phase that lets some of the dudes in the scene make themselves seem above the rest of us because theyre ''too cool for foam tape''

the whole trend reminds me of this awesome video

Not everyone cares about the opinion of others... I'm sure most of those dudes use grip/arrange colored grip just because they want to. (Note: I don't use skategrip)
