Behind the Counter of a Skate and Snow Shop! - Episode 48

In this episode, we talk about why skateboarding seems to be bubbling back to life, how snowboarding gear is changing, and the tough choices we’ve made as a business—like only selling what we actually believe in. Along the way, we dig into why some shops refuse to sell helmets and pads, what “convenience” bindings really mean, and how personal style matters more than chasing the latest trend. 

We get into the stuff that’s been bubbling under the surface:

• Why skateboarding feels alive again (and why it’s not the same as it used to be).
• How snowboarding gear is evolving—and why we’ve ditched selling products we don’t believe in.
• The weird rise and fall of scooters (and why there are literally no scooter shops left in Sydney).
• What “sell what you love” actually means when you’re trying to survive as a business in today’s retail world.
• Why personal style beats chasing trends—and how vintage and creativity are shaping what we do next.

If you’ve ever wondered what really goes on behind the counter of a skate and snow shop, or what it’s like to stick to your guns when the easy option is to cave in, this one’s for you.
