THE FACTORY, DUNDEE | S2E05 - BOARD TO DEATH - A SCOTTISH SKATEBOARDING PODCAST

The Factory was quite literally - a factory. An unused building were in the 80s a group of skateboarders from the city of Dundee made their home away or home or in some cases by the sounds of it, just their home.

The Factory would go on to become one of the most iconic locations in Scottish skateboarding and went through four different versions all the way through to today. We're joined by OGs Rick Curran and Ray Dower who are telling some of their favourite stories from the era thirty years later.
