When we launched Mami Wata in 2017 we had a stand at the Biscuit Mill market in Woodstock, Cape Town. Opposite ours, was a rack stacked with great looking handcrafted skateboards - Alpha Longboards. The stand was manned by Kent Lingeveldt, the founder of Alpha Longboards, he came over, said hi and asked us what we were up to. He correctly sensed that we were new to the game and supported us by lending us his advice and experience. We’ve been friends ever since.
