Jason Dill & Anthony Van Engelen, announced in May 2013 that they had parted ways with long time sponsor Alien Workshop. Shortly after, pictures appeared with AVE & Dill riding blanks with Fucking Awesome Stickers & word was that they are starting their own Skateboard company under the Fucking Awesome brand.
On AVE’s Instagram, a picture appeared on AVE’s instagram with 2 rows of their boards in SUPREME on 3rd October, which pretty much confirmed this as a legit new skate company.
Initially, FA boards were exclusive to SUPREME, & they sold out FAST. You know something is fucking legit when SUPREME gots your back.
Everyone & every skate shop wanted to get hold of Fucking Awesome, & later we learned that there was going to be a list of shops that are going to carry the decks by Mid October.
We are super lucky to be able to get these boards via 8FIVE2SHOP. FA are super selective with who can sell their boards;
“I constantly shoot myself in the foot from a business standpoint actually ’cause I make it for sale but at the same time I don’t want you to have it. It’s a bit of a personality disorder company.”– Jason Dill
