From crafting surfboards in his parents’ West Pennant Hills garage, to becoming a renowned skateboard manufacturer with his brand Omni Boards, Cary Pogson takes us on an extraordinary journey through his life so far. Alongside this week's co-host, and journalist, Jim Turvey, we explore Cary's passion for supporting local skateboarders and his commitment to preserving Australian manufacturing in the face of global competition.
Cary breaks down the craftsmanship involved in skateboard production, emphasising the importance of quality materials and the balance between traditional methods and modern techniques. Cary candidly shares the lessons learned from producing boards for other brands and his journey back to reviving the Omni brand once again.
We reflect on his challenges and triumphs. Cary highlights his ongoing efforts to nurture the next generation of skaters as a key motivation for the vision of Omni.
Cary and the Omni Boards legacy is vast. It is one of dedication to craft, community and culture, a reminder that passion holds more value than profit. Always.
Enjoy,
Shan
