About The Founder

Since 2007, Spade has embraced skateboarding as both a passion and a source of belonging—a constant in his ever-changing life. Growing up moving between California cities and split homes, he learned to adapt early while quietly struggling with deep emotional pain.
After surviving two suicide attempts and battling depression and anxiety, Spade found hope and purpose through his relationship with Christ. Today, he empowers teens to overcome their own challenges, teaching mental health, emotional intelligence, and self-discovery, and inspiring them to transform adversity into opportunity.
