Episode 17 - Julian Dykmans

Episode 17 with Julian Dykmans, man of many talents.  Julian grew up in Belgium where he started skating, but has spent most of his adult life traveling around the world, first as a singer for the punk-rock ska band "Looking Up", then as a pro skater for iconic brands such as Consolidated or Antiz Skateboards, which he co-created in 2002, while also working as a team and marketing manager for various brands in the skateboarding industry such as Carharrt or RVCA to name a few, and also acting in short films, commercials and plays.  Eventually he settled down in Berlin, Germany and it only made sense that he would use his high energy, rich experience and endless creativity to co-launch the creative studio "Cascade" with his partner Lou Andrea Savoir.  They both direct and produce documentary work and commercials for brands such as Nike, Hermès, Leica and many more.   Intro (00:13)  Growing up (01:26)  Sponsors (09:08)  Ska-punk band “Looking up” (22:33)  Founding Antiz with Hugo Liard (35:23)  Mongolia trip for Carharrt (39:18)  First team & marketing management experiences (44:22)  Retiring from pro skating (54:09)  Transitioning into production & founding a creative studio (01:04:14)  Ongoing/future projects at Cascade (01:23:44)  Perspective on skateboarding today (01:25:29)  Friends questions (01:30:37)  Conclusion (01:40:23) For more information & resources: https://linktr.ee/beyondboardsHosted by Ausha.
