The shop is about the skaters. It's about skateboarding. The shop is for the skaters out there skating in the local area. And a little about the owner: I've been skateboarding since I was 11 (that was 1984). My first board was a Veriflex "Streetlight". I'll never forget that board for as long as I live. My first trick was a "power slide" at the bottom of my driveway. Used to grab the frontside rail and tuck and curl into this nasty wheel slide that I just loved, and I did it over and over again. Second board was a Vision Mark Gonzales. I'll never forget that board either. It was all flourescent yellow, pink, and blue. It was the "face" graphic. It was the standard 10" x 30" dimension at the time. Anyway that board was sick and I started ollieing with that board. Flipping thru the pages of a black & white "newspaper style" Thrasher magazine I saw a "Step by Step" of "The Ollie". It was Mark G. popping over the narrow part of a kidney pool (like 8 feet!). Sick! It was ON from that point on...23 years later I'm still skating and running this shop. This shop is for the skaters, plain and simple. I love skateboarding and I know you guys do too. Skateboarding is forever...
