| Hi guys! I've mostly been using social media to get news/updates about my website out to the community, but I figured I may as well make a thread here too! For those who don't know me, my name is Geraldine! I'm a 19 year old lefty girl who's been fingerboarding since 2007. I have a bunch of really crazy hobbies that aren't remotely related to fingerboarding, but I've always enjoyed fingerboarding and have stuck with it. I moved from South Africa, to Texas, then to upstate New York which is where I'm currently based. I run www.GrindSir.bigcartel.com which has a couple different brands distributed on it, as well as products made by me. I started a brand called Teak Tuning over one and a half years ago selling different types and colors of o-ring tuning sets, and have created the GrindSir site to expand on different kinds of tuning, and to add things that are handmade by either myself or by other fellow fingerboarders in the community. The site is constantly expanding and is a work in progress for me as I add new things, experiment with different prototypes, or collab/distribute with other companies. I'm a full time Criminal Justice student, so this is what takes up much of my spare time. But most importantly... I love doing it The focus of the website right now is having a wide range and variety of tuning, since that what I've been doing for a while. There's basic tuning sets, all the way up to professional tuning like Witchcrafts. My goal is to provide a wide range of tuning of different kinds, styles, preferences, and prices. Here's a quick overview of the tuning that is on the website right now (in order of price) :Teak SmoothiesThese are high quality bushings that come with just about everything you need to set up your trucks: bushings, washers, and pivot cups. They are only $2 per set, so it's a good option for anyone on a budget. Teak 2.0'sThese are similar to the FlatFace User and Rhom bushings as it has a regular top bushings and large bottom bushings. These also come with two washers since some people prefer to use one on the top or bottom of the truck. Marshmallow TuningThis is a tuning that I make myself - they are hard to the touch but ride very loose. Similar to griptape, they need to be warn in (for a couples minutes). Cloud NinesCloud Nines are a soft, clear, loose, and responsive tuning that I make. It is still pretty new, but more shape variations will be coming out soon Softies BushingsSofties are made by Geoff Rasco and are distributed through the GrindSir website. These have clear top bushings and white bottom bushings. As far as I know, these are only available by contacting @herroasianman on Instagram, so GrindSir is the only other place to pick up a set of these. Chubz x Teak CollabsThis collaboration has Chubz top bushings and Teak bottom bushings. Chubz are made in South Carolina by Justin Leviner. The collabs are exclusively available on GrindSir, and other sets are available on RedWolf, or by contacting Justin on Instagram. WitchcraftsCan't forget the tuning master himself! Some of the other products on the site are tape, board rails, stickers, ect. I also make custom vinyl stickers for anyone who wants to have a few custom vinyl stickers made without burning a hole in their wallet. The price is $10 for 40 stickers (25 cents each) and I have a couple templates to choose from (or you can send me your own design). With the amount time that goes into this, it's not really much of a money making thing... it's just a service that I wanted to see in the community before I had to spend hundreds on a vinyl cutting machine. And since I now have the right machine and materials, I figured I'd offer it at a low price for anyone else who might be interested in it. As I mentioned earlier, this is a constant work in progress. While I have primarily been focusing on tuning, I'm slowly shifting gears into some other things as well. I don't want to give too much away, but other things that I am currently prototyping/working on include: - a concrete ramp line - a Summer shirt line for fingerboarding/skating - more collaborations/distributions with different companies - more tuning (yes, really) Website: www.GrindSir.bigcartel.com

| This stuff looks great! Which bushings are the hardest that you sell? Looking for something comparable to BRR Med bushings if that helps |

| Hi guys, I've just put up a stock of the new Bubble Bushings. These are available with O-Ring bottoms (my personal favorite) or as full sets. They are for loose/medium trucks and are very responsive. I've been working on these for months, so I'm pretty stoked to finally release these. There are quite a few solid colors, plus a small amount of swirls (Tyedye and WhitexTeal). Also, if you check this thread and plan on ordering anything off the site, type in FBHQ to the "discount" section if you order for 10% off until June 6th And the packaging for those who care... www.GrindSir.bigcartel.com |

| Just released a couple decks from Fatal Fingerboards! As I'm sure some of you know, he's back at making decks and these ones turned out great! These sets come with two sets of tuning, a 32mm black and white Fatal split, and some other goodies - all with a black and white theme |

It should be back in the next 1-2 weeks. I've got some new packaging on its way, plus two different kinds of tape to add to the mix |
