Why is black bip bop such an infamous/expensive colorway? I couldn't think of another word for infamous
For whatever reason, from the very first time it was run, Chris only decided to make a few. And then he decided to ONLY run it once per model. So it's just crazy scarce. -STeve
I play guitar, uke, and bass. None of them well, ha ha. -Steve
Any reason why you can't get machined raw halves of the Blizzard or Igloo and anodize in the USA? Like is there a problem with anodization when there is a steel ring?
Because having a machine shop and anodizer work together is key to holding tolerances and preventing any issues that can arise from anodizing build-up. When you completely separate those two processes you run the risk of big problems. -Steve
When will be the next Blizzard drop? Which colors from the first run will be present?
Not sure on a date, or even current production status. All focus is on getting the first run of Igloo's out right now. -Steve
What's the best competition throw you guys offer that can handle speedy and horizontal tricks and bangers that Paolo Bueno does?
Blizzard and soon the Igloo are top notch. Orca, Scout, and Bonfire still hold their own. -Steve
Anything undersized from you guys this year?
Nothing planned. -Steve
Doesn't it get old when people ask about fg drops? It's like they want to support you on losing money. It should be a specialty that drops randomly and whoever keeps an eye out get dibs. Also save them for contests.
Yeah, I'm really re-thinking how we handle them. It's weird...people actually seem to expect a higher level of service on FG drops than anything else, and the mere presence of these return tops means we're already screwed. It's not fun, at all, and I think in the future we're probably just going to start doing blind drops. -Steve
Saw Yogi the other day on snap chat!!!
He sure is a handsome pup, isn't he? -Steve

Yogi has a lot of those. Mostly chewing up things he shouldn't be chewing up, and digging up things he shouldn't be digging up. -Steve
I love the Bonfire but it's so overshadowed by the Orca and Scout in the performance department. The pricing for it just hurts. Why not just get it produced in China?
That's a matter of opinion. Kurti didn't seem to have any problems kicking plenty of ass with the Bonfire even with the option of using the Orca or Scout. -Steve
What state will the Fool's Gold throws be shipping from? Thank ya!
Massachusetts. We rent some warehouse space there. -Steve
MANATEE.
It looks like a really cool design, from what I can see on Riccardo's Instagram video. Would you mind (do it) putting up some pictures of it?
No pics yet. -Steve
How many FG "Half Algae Bloom/Half Aquatic Life" Sasquatches were there available today? Just Algae Bloom? Just Aquatic Life? Also, what boxes do each of the FG return tops come in? Do sasquatches come in sasquatch boxes? What about all the others? Thanks!
Less than five of each. All come in FG boxes. -Steve
When is the next Orca release?
Not sure. Month or two? -Steve
Is Indigo Montoya going to be a regularly run colorway? I'd love to see that one again in the future. Thanks!
