Platform Episode 74 - Duran Bickmore from TNEC

TNEC owner, and co-owner of Beehive Skate Shop, Duran Bickmore
discusses the new TNEC 58 skate, an entry level aggressive skate
aimed at newcomers. The Salt Lake City resident discusses his
plans for the skate, why he chose to go with a mould from the
1990s, why it is going one of if not THE lightest aggressive
skate on the market, and some of the key features that he thinks
will make a different to first-time buyers. In addition to
talking about The New Everything Company, Duran talks his
experience about running a skate shop alongside Nicholas Swan for
the past few years, what he has learned, observed about the
industry, and noticed and customer trends. As someone who thinks
they have a relatively good understanding of how the skate
industry works, I was VERY surprised by some of his responses! If
