For the first installment, “Pushing Blocks", he decided to take us all the way back to our early to mid 2010s NYC trips, which resulted in our 2016 full-length "I like it here inside my mind... don't wake me up this time".

So we caught up with Fred to share backstories and insights from the 2000s.

They collected so much footage that didn't end up in the final edit, so Sirus created this little extra (plus some footage from Austin), because if leftover clips are amazing they shouldn't stay leftover. [IMG: Our warehouse manager Robbin De Wit talking about his guest pro model video part, job & more] Our warehouse manager Robbin De Wit talking about his guest pro model video part, job & moreRobbin de Wit, our warehouse manager, is a well-known character in the Dutch skate scene and now a guest pro on Polar.

[IMG: “It was the gnarliest road rash I’ve ever gotten” – backstories with Nick Boserio] “It was the gnarliest road rash I’ve ever gotten” – backstories with Nick BoserioWhether it’s that opening scene from “Everything is Normal”, commentating the Olympics on TV or other stuff.

Your Diagnosis
Before revealing the machine’s verdict, predict the BS score for each signal. Higher = more BS (more fluff, less verifiable substance). Drag each slider, then submit to compare your judgment against the engine.
Stuck? Reveal the heuristic lens — how the deterministic page-auditor reads each signal (no AI, pure pattern rules)
These are the structural rules a local, deterministic auditor applies — the same lens you can use to judge each signal. They describe what to look for, not this company’s result.
Classify each sentence as substantive or hollow. Grounding markers — numbers, currencies, dates, technical units, named entities — outweigh marketing adjectives. When fluff sits right next to hard evidence, the fluff is forgiven.
Pull the main entities out of the H1, then check whether they actually recur through the body. A page that announces one thing and then talks about another drifts. Headings with no real sentences underneath read as pseudo-substance.
Count trust words (review, testimonial, rating, verified) against real outbound proof links (Google, Trustpilot, Clutch, G2, Yelp). Lots of trust language with zero verification links is trust theatre. Unlinked logo galleries count against it.
Look at how much sentence length varies. Natural writing varies its rhythm; templated or mass-produced copy is statistically uniform. Very low variation reads as commodity content — unless unique named entities break the pattern.
Inspect the JSON-LD. Is there an Organization or Person schema, and does it carry sameAs links to real external profiles (LinkedIn, socials)? Missing schema or no identity declaration signals an anonymous entity.
Want to apply this lens yourself? The free BS Indicator Chrome extension runs these heuristic checks live on any page. Bear in mind it is a single-page, deterministic tool — it relies only on pattern rules for the page in front of it and does not perform the cross-page semantic correlation this audit uses, so its readout is a starting lens, not the full verdict.
Based on 2934 businesses audited.
Polar Skate Co. has 38.7 points less BS than the average for Fashion, Apparel & Accessories.
Fashion, Apparel & Accessories BS: Polar Skate Co. (polarskateco.com)
Polar Skate Co. is a rare case of a brand with near-zero BS, prioritizing cultural substance over marketing signals. The site operates as a digital archive of a specific sub-culture, using specific names and dates rather than generic industry jargon. It is an authentic brand that lets its history and products serve as the only necessary evidence.
1. Implement Organization schema on the homepage to formalize the brand’s digital identity. 2. Use Person schema for named team members and contributors on the Latest page to link their digital footprints. 3. Add sameAs links in schema to point to verified social profiles or third-party documentation of skate films. 4. Continue maintaining the current lack of marketing buzzwords, as it significantly differentiates the brand from fast-fashion competitors.
The site is an exact match for the Fashion, Apparel & Accessories industry, specifically within the skateboarding sub-culture. The content focuses heavily on seasonal apparel collections and cultural media production related to skateboarding.
“The score of 6 is primarily driven by technical identity gaps (Step 5) and standard e-commerce template language (Step 4). The site scored 0 in semantic drift and trust theatre due to an absolute lack of traditional marketing fluff and a high reliance on specific, dated, and named cultural evidence.”
