    On this week’s episode of the USAFBL Fingerboard Podcast, we welcome back Chris from @loosenut_fb! Recorded live in Wilmington, NC, at the RC Drift + Fingerboard event, we dive into the challenges of running a fingerboard team in today’s social media era. We talk about how sponsorship dynamics have shifted from brand-driven to rider-driven, the importance of aligning team values with brand image, and why politics and controversy can sink a reputation fast. Chris gives us an inside look at Loose Nut’s team structure, future projects (including resin-printed wheels and new graphics), and his take on what makes the perfect team rider. We also break down why USAFBL Regionals and Nationals have become the hub for spotting future talent.

    If you’re looking to sponsor riders, build a team, or just understand the evolving landscape of fingerboard culture, this one’s packed with insights.


    If you haven’t been keeping track, we have weekly episodes! Audio versions out on Wednesday and video version out on Thursdays!
