    Farmers Branch is a good solid skatepark. Often our first businesses fail, but what matters is that we learn from our failures and succeed later with that gained knowledge.

    A lot of Skate companies have artists that do the designs and they get royalties. Some of the reason why Skateboarding is so great is the Artistic aspect of the products, the unique designs and drawings. Even some of the small Logos were desinged by very experienced Artists. I went to some Design classes in college, it was crazy to learn about Graffic Design and how even simple Designs can become popular and appealing.

    Dude an idea is a beautiful thing. Your skateboards look sick ESPECIALLY because they are different than others. Don't ignore your good ideas. They are what make your brand unique and ultimately what will make it successful. I'm sure you won't ruin progress daily if you make it more you than it already is. I think it would be better.

    The more money you have the easier it'll be to have a successful skateboard company in 2022. This isn't the 90s or early 2000s anymore. Or become a well known pro and then start your own later like others have. If you don't have a lot of money why tf would any pro wanna skate on your team? No pro in his or her right mind would take peanuts from a startup skate company. You need a lot of money no matter what.

    As a skateboarder and a T-shirt wearer, I can tell you I will never wear a shirt that says "learn to love". That's too arrogant. Think of the person who reads it. Who is the target audience? Haters? They read that shirt and they barf. Lovers? They already love. Too wimpy and meaningless. John, Progress Daily makes way more sense, and portrays a positive image. Learn to X makes assumptions and draws from the bottom. Food for thought. Otherwise I love your videos.

    Doesn't using recognisable characters such as Hisoka, Yuji and Power somewhat infringe on copyright. Are you licensing the use of these characters or hoping the change of style makes the pieces fall under 'fair use'?
    Just curious as I've also been on a similar endeavour and had to make a lot of work arounds to avoid an future legal issues.
