Best Practices

• •Speak the Language, Authentically: Use common skateboarding vernacular and slang naturally, without forcing it. Reflect a genuine understanding and passion for the culture. Avoid corporate jargon.
• •Prioritize Community & Connection: Frame messages around shared experiences, local spots (if applicable to the audience), and the collective spirit of skateboarding. Highlight how the brand supports and engages with this community.
• •Educate and Inform, Don't Just Sell: Share knowledge about products, history, and the culture. Position the brand as a go-to resource, not just a retailer. This builds trust and authority.
• •Be Relatable and Approachable: Especially on platforms like TikTok and Instagram, use a conversational, sometimes humorous, and down-to-earth tone. Show the human side of the brand.
• •Stay True to "Core" Values: Consistently reinforce what the brand stands for – whether it's supporting local, passion for quality gear, or preserving skate history. This resonates with the dedicated "skate nerd" audience.
