FBTV Company Interview – Piratenholz0

January 4, 2011 by MartinB. | 8:59 am


Hello Josh! Hello Vik! Tell us about who you are, where you from and whats your daily business.

Josh:I´m Josh and 21. I used to live in Trier and since I was 7 I´m living in Wiesbaden. At the moment I´m in an education for being a visuelle merchandiser at a furniture store.
Vik: I´m also 21 and I´m living in Wiesbaden for almost 2 years now together with my fiancé Josh. I´m working at a piercing shop, and being a upcoming tattooartist.

How do you get in touch with fingerboarding?

Josh: That must´ve been 15 years ago, when my older brother gave me a key ring with a plastic fingerboard. I started to ride it, bought my first tech deck, then a berlin wood, and finally started my own brand together with vik.
Vik: To be honest, I never knew that fingerboarding is a real business. To me I knew there were some kids having one, but never did a good job riding it. When I finally met Josh in 2008 he really made me fall in love with it literally.

How do you get your company started?

– Vik: I think it were both of us wanting to start something. Josh was like he wishes he could create is own boards, and I thought ´why not?´
Josh: Yes, that must´ve been it. I think Vik first painted my berlin wood (elias assmuth) all white with red lips and her name on it. That was the point when she said, why not painting the decks and make everyone a unique graphic?


What plans do you got for 2011?

Josh: We have something currently secret for 2011 that will be a kind of ´special´ and of course being on jams, contest and making some rad decks!
Vik: And Josh´s plan to never be worse than 3rd place at a contest :D

Is this your daytime job?

Vik: Noooooo. That would never work. We don´t earn that much money by just selling one or two fingerboards a month. And as sad as it is, that´s what it mostly is.
Josh: I would love to say that this is what we do for a living, but to face reality, most of those who are making fingerboards can´t live by just doing that. Even if they would love to.

What´s your current setup?

Vik: I don´t have one really…
Josh: Of course a piratenholz deck (Katzekopp), blackriver trucks, blackriver bushings mixed with O-rings-revolution (red) and substance wheels.


Do you have any „sneak-preview“ for 2011?

Josh: Nope. It will be all surprising :D

Which fingerboard experience you liked the most (contest/jam/session)?

Josh: I really really love the shit hessens contests. Can hardly say the reason why but I think everyone who´s ever been there can imagine why I feel that way about shit hessens
Vik: Me too. I´m not that into jams and sessions in that kind of way, just because I can´t really ride a fingerboard. I normally just sit there and do some awful jokes about 4-letter words and poo. But when I´m coming to a shit hessens contest it was always fun, because there are so many awesome people to meet, I never have seen in my life if I wasn´t there (marc, Anja and Alex, I think you know that it´s you I´m talking about at this point)

And finally do you want to thank someone?

There are so many people, we owe so much. Katha, for supporting us since day one; Marc S, for being a good friend and person, and shouting out for piratenholz; Peter, also one of those who truly believed in us since we started, Alex Christ for the big support and friendship;
Titus Wiesbaden, for selling our stuff; Martin Beckmann, for posting such nice things on fingerboardTV
