On this week’s episode of the podcast, we welcome Andy, also known as Index Chicago and from Knife MFG Co! We dive into the full behind the scenes breakdown of how a true full length fingerboard video gets made, from filming missions and footage strategy to music selection, pacing, and building the structure before the edit even begins. We talk about Index in Chicago, remodeling the shop with the local crew, rotating parks, prototyping obstacles, and how they balance difficulty versus fun in park design. We also get into Big Stepas, the PSL inspired team contest format, why it is more watchable for spectators, and what this kind of yes or no scoring could mean for the future of competitive fingerboarding.

On this week’s episode of the USAFBL Fingerboard Podcast, we sit down with Matt, the original founder of Joycult, for one of the most honest and in-depth conversations ever recorded about fingerboarding history.

We dive into Matt’s early life as a skateboarder, how Joycult started, why he chose to focus on wheels instead of decks, and how Joycult became one of the most influential brands of the 2010s. Matt opens up about the pressures of rapid growth, the impact of COVID on small brands, fulfillment challenges, online speculation, and the mental health toll of running a community-driven company under constant scrutiny.

We also talk about the sale of Joycult, what really happened behind the scenes, how the brand changed after the buyout, and where Matt is today, including his transition into fine art, writing, and life beyond fingerboarding.

This episode isn’t about drama, it’s about context, accountability, creativity, and growth. Whether you were there during the early Joycult era or you’re new to fingerboarding, this is a must-listen conversation that captures an important chapter of fingerboarding culture.

On this week’s episode of the USAFBL Fingerboard Podcast, we recap one of the wildest years in competitive fingerboarding. We dive into the massive cash prizes from Combo of the Year, Line of the Year, and King of the Plies, and break down why 2025 became the year fingerboarding officially stepped into the world of sports. We talk about the first-ever USAFBL trading cards, the rise of Plies Magazine as the heartbeat of the scene, and the Fast Fingers 22 trip that’s turning our national champions into Team USAFBL. We highlight global expansion with upcoming sanctioned events in Australia, Spain, the Philippines, Africa, and beyond. And we give a behind-the-scenes look at “Flick,” a new fingerboarding documentary produced by Taylor University. Season 4 is coming in hot and 2026 is shaping up to be even bigger.
