""One thing I love about skaters is they're just transparent, they're authentic. There is somewhat of a brashness in terms of if you see something that you want to tackle, you're going to go tackle it.""
""If you've ever been to a skate park, you'll see skaters working for hours to land a new trick. That persistent mentality is something I've always embraced.""
""The cool thing about today is you see a lot more Black and brown skaters than you did in previous years. If you look around, you don't see a whole lot of people of color working in specialty coffee.""
Civic Coast Coffee, founded by Bryan Daniel, merges West Coast skate culture with specialty coffee in Indianapolis through online sales and pop-ups. Daniel values the authenticity and determination of skaters, applying their persistent mentality to coffee roasting. He promotes a culture of acceptance and support among skaters, paralleling it with the specialty coffee industry. Daniel notes the increasing diversity in skate culture but highlights the lack of representation for people of color in specialty coffee, particularly in access to resources and opportunities.
