This week, we hangout with George Tichbon — aka Swellbows — to talk slams, soundtracks, digital animation, and the originality he brings to a genre of skateboarding that may lack it at times. From early days goon-bagging around the skate parks of the Gold Coast to the years he spent living in Texas USA, George breaks down the injuries that earned him his nickname, the mental grind of bouncing back, and the constant stream of creativity flowing through him.

We get into skate crews, DIY culture, and how music and skating have always been two sides of the same coin. If you know, you know.

Stories, laughs, and pure love for the scene, this is Swellbows (with a hang-over).

Scott Spring has done more than just leave his mark on skateboarding — he's built ramps, parks, homes, and a deeper understanding of himself along the way. In this episode, Scott opens up about his mental health journey, including how coming to terms with his neurodiversity helped him shift his mindset and find balance. We talk about building Fairfield mini ramp with Adam Luxford and Spittle, building eco-houses with purpose, and how skateboarding has always been a tool for connection, healing, and growth. A grounded, honest chat with one of the real ones.

Shoutout to Sean Mussett, and the Katoomba Surf Club for skating and hanging out.

Good times!

Shan

This week, I sit down with Zane Hedley — co-founder of Nextdoor Sydney, the skate-inspired clothing label making serious waves in the Australian streetwear scene. From his early days skating Bar Beach Bowl to building a brand rooted in community, culture, and clean design, Zane breaks down what it really takes to turn an idea into a movement.

We talk skateboarding, the creative process, launching a business with your mates, and how they’ve carved out a lane of their own in an industry flooded with trends.

Whether you're a skater, a designer, or just someone chasing a dream, this convo's got something for you. We also dive into the resounding success of the Bondi Bowl Bash — an event Zane played a key role in organising.

Enjoy,
Shan
