Mates

Powered by Community: The Podium Mates Network

At Podium Supply Co., skateboarding has always been about more than just the gear under your feet—it is about the community, partnerships, and grassroots initiatives that keep the subculture thriving. Our Mates network brings together local crews, skate schools, creative collectives, and non-profit organisations who share our deep passion for rolling together.
From supporting the youth at the YMCA Skate Club and pushing boundaries with the Gnarly Neighbours, to backing global structural builds through Make Life Skate Life, we are immensely proud to stand alongside groups making a real impact on and off the pavement.
This space is dedicated to celebrating those shared values, showcasing ongoing regional activations, and introducing you to the organizations driving the next generation of skate culture forward. Dive in to learn more about our community initiatives, explore regional skate school updates, and find out how our collective networks are working together to make skate parks a welcoming, creative, and inclusive haven for everyone.
We are stoked to welcome Chiggy's Skateboarding into the Podium Mates network. Renowned for their incredible Coolum Beach indoor skate park and a rapidly growing coaching presence across Brisbane and the Gold Coast, the crew at Chiggy's shares our exact vision for community-driven progression.
