Will you be doing interviews on a broader scale, including more than just fingerboarding, like Gripskin?

I probably won't do interviews, as i want it to be more about the actual team and their interests.

oh ok cool. will you interview the team on things other than fingerboarding? (sorry for so many questions..) haha cheers

Yeah probably, but not something as petty as, "What did you have for breakfast this morning?"

I'd like to welcome Eddie Sharples on the team!




Eddie is a fucking beast. Every event i've been to he's been there, a top bloke indeed. We've met up fairly occasional and always had a right laugh, Eddie has definitely got a treasured spot on Ampersands.

:0 that look's realy nice Thom, Im not even kidding. Deck? Is there going to be a shortened version of the name so I could customise my Soma?

It's a Redemption MMC Blue Mesh deck, Eddie's been shredding it pretty fucking hard, haha

And i guess you could use AMPRSNDS

..

that is so sick! i love the colours James!

Did you make your own mold man??

Isn't "&" short enough for you?

I may be selling stencils, seems to be enough demand for them, i just need to decide on a price though, haha

haha, Stencils don't cost much I gather? But do them FB size, aswell as normality size.

I think i'm going to sell stencils for £1.50

Also, tees may be coming soon too, i'm weighing it all up, haha

.

This sounds really cool, get a blog up and running
And I don't think you understand the concept James, it's a group of friends, not a company

haha!! this is such a cool project. i think the best thing about it is the freedom of ideas and expression that can be involved.

james, your enthusiasm is nice, but maybe you could refrain from 30+ posts a day?

..


Anyway. I'm working stuff out. If anyone would like me to make T-Shirts, please get in touch with me telling me what size you'd like!

The tee's will have stuff sprayed on, ghetto indeed.. Also the stuff i plan on using won't fade in the wash

What sizes can ya get?

Well the ones i'm thinking of stocking mainly are M and L, but i could stock S and XL too if needs be.

Send me a large one wheeeeeey

Sounds amazing, exactly what is needed for the UK to expand with freedom and not with companies.

Oh, also, Will Day is now on the team!


Will is a legend in his own right, he marks his own path and is certainly an individual. Will is probably the chillest person i've ever met, and is instantly likeable. My time with him in Germany brought to light how important the English scene is to all of us, and how it needs to show it's stride worldwide.


Think of it not as a company please (even if i may start selling products), think of it as a movement. Fingerboarding is a culture, live it.

oh my gawd...

sounds like a cool idea.
