Grant Fukuda


I always wondered whatever happened to Grant. A couple of years ago he up and moved to NYC and then I heard through the grapevine that he was in Seattle. It's been a good couple years or so since we last skated Cholos or Kapolei and had some beers at the Hideaway. Recently I recieved an email from Grant regarding some projects he had planned for RHPS like their shoe with Vans and his collab with Max Schaaf / 4Q Conditioning. Looks like things are rolling along very well for Mr. Fukuda according to this article I came across from a recent interview he did for a local barbershop of all things. When Grant left Hawaii he started Grant's Golden Brand waterbased pomade. This seems to have been his focus the past couple of years according to the interview. Anyways it's a pretty interesting read, if you're interested click HERE. Maybe when he's in Hawaii next time he'll stop by for a quick visit (hint hint)! Grant if you're reading this let's go skate and have a cold one for old time sake!
