Over the years we've shared videos of Skunk2's owner, Dave Hsu doing all sorts of things. From eating too much during a food challenge, cooking turkey for Thanksgiving, answering enthusiasts "Hard-Hitting Questions", to touring the East Coast, there are times when you REALLY get to see the man behind the brand. This time the camera was invited into Mr. Hsu's office just before he did some "spring cleaning". Check out some of the Skunk2 prototypes, future products, one-off items, secret documents and whatever else Dave decides to knock the dust off of... ... Read More »

Wow! I can't believe its almost 2 years since I last blogged about anything. Things have been busy in a very good way.

I made up a title got your attention... but the truth is I was never gone, and it seems like these days I don't get pissed about a whole lot. However, the reality is that in the near future I will be taking a sabbatical from the day's ins and outs here at Group-A, and before I leave I thought it would be fun to fire up ... Read More »

Most of you probably wouldn’t recognize Skunk2’s owner, Dave Hsu, even if you bumped right into him. And we’re guessing you probably know very little about him other than what you read here.

Last year we had the opportunity to bring an intern (Ricardo) into the engineering department for the summer. We really weren't planning on having an intern, but he showed a great deal of persistence, and a willingness to "do whatever it takes," including working for free, which are both admirable and rare qualities, so we decided to bring him on for the summer. ...
