Great Skateshop in downtown Brooklyn

by cristos 1

When you stop by the shop, you'll usually be greeted by one of the courteous staff members and be offered assistance, and if you have any questions, you can always feel at ease knowing you're going to get an experienced and honest opinion. They brew Mud coffee in the mornings and sell skate and snowboards, skate and snow apparel in the afternoon, and do skateboarding lessons on the weekends. During the winter they run day trips to various mountains to go snowboarding or skiing. Constantly involved in the community and keeping it real in Brooklyn. A great skateshop with a really awesome vibe.

• Pros: Awesome selection and variety
• Cons: no skatepark right around the corner

Really nice selection of boards, trucks and wheels, not the cheapest but not too expensive, employees can skate really well and they offer lessons.

Who cares about the music the store is playing? If you're experienced or not, this shop is the place to go to. They have many decks from regular boards to cruisers, long boards, and even flow boards. The employees are nice and can help you pick out a board right for you. If you're inexperienced, they help you pick a deck, trucks, wheels and even bearings to start you off on the right foot. They also have a section of new complete decks for people wanting to spend less money. I got a Zero deck, Indy trucks, Bullet wheels and Bone Swiss bearings for a grand total of $175. This is an o.k. price compared to other shops like Autumn Skateboard Shop where this combination would have been around $200. Homage to Michelle Sauer and Jose Portes!

• Pros: Mild Prices, Cool employees, Big selection,
• Cons: Right on Smith Street=Little Parking
