📝 Interview by Zach Baker

As with many things today, people want to know what it is. “Is it a brand? Is it a crew? Is it just an Instagram page? It is serious? Is it …a joke? What ..is IT?!” Myles Underwood’s Fuck This Industry imprint is no doubt something that incites such reactions from people with a mental need to put things into categories. We’ve been rocking with what can now most commonly be referred to in shorthand as F.T.I. since it was called some amalgamation of Club Dragon Fuck This Industry 2008 Son Of A Bitch Company, but never formally sat down with Myles to discuss its evolution.

It was a windy day in Maspeth, Queens when I found Alim, 17 years old, fingerboarding at New York’s only D.I.Y. fingerboard park. “Yo, imagine I film a whole fingerboard street part, but it’s on VX1000? Ima’ change the game with that one,” he said to me. I laughed, thinking about all the tape he’d have to waste. “What you laughing at, poser?” he said to me with a grin on his face. Alim is the type of kid who says what he wants.

As we got to know each other, Alim invited me out on a few filming missions with his best friend Elisa Martini, 20 years old, a skater from Jamaica, Queens. Elisa and Alim are the youngest new members of the Bronze 56K crew. For a whole year, as Alim recovered from his ACL surgery, Elisa and him invested in a VX1000 and set out to film a video. On the morning of their video premiere, I sat down with the two friends at the Brooklyn Banks to learn more about the making of “On The Corner.”
