I sat down for a quick mini-pod with Mike Schneider to talk about one of the biggest topics in fingerboarding right now.. gatekeeping.. Is it helping the scene, or is it hurting it?

Mike’s been in the community longer than almost anyone, and with FlatFace, plus now bringing Blistered Fingerboard Wheels and Duck Decks under his wing, he’s seen every era of fingerboarding. So he was the perfect person to get some honest insight from.

This wasn’t a full episode that one’s coming early next year and we recorded this on the fly, so the video and audio aren’t at the usual Bigspin quality. Thanks for bearing with it!

I appreciate everyone who’s been supporting the podcast, and I’d love to hear your take on gatekeeping in the comments. And huge thanks to Mike for jumping on and making time for this mini-pod.

Support Mike!
