Accidentally Opening A Skate Shop

So far we’ve got rock solid, slugger, rolling thunder and power on board. Shiner and Keen are happy to sort us out once we’re set up and got like minded brands in stock.

I’d happily go over board and just order everything I can, but we’re gonna start small and see how we go.

You are laughing with that lot. Form?

Note sure. Crailtap, Zero etc all feel like very old brands now. If the shop’s clientele is mainly aging skateboarders then maybe, but not sure chasing the nostalgia pound is a great idea.

Keen would be the big distributor I’d try to get.

That’s a decent list. Slugger do Black Label so i may hit you up for something at some point, especially if you can get anything Lucero elephant related

Yer I mean Keen has by far the best brands in the U.K. by a mile then Rock Solid.

I would still get Girl and Chocolate if it was me.

Love the branding and name, also up for some merch as and when available

Shop tees are certainly on the to do list, I have contacted Form but none of their brands really seem like must haves compared to some of the other brands on offer from Keen etc

Good job you mentioned your older brother. Wouldn’t want him kicking off.

I’m really impressed with the Girl board I’m on at the moment, so much so I have another in the same shape ready to go (G026). And I’ll likely ride another after that. My set up is consistent even if when I stand on it, I am not.

Russ didn’t want my excellent marketing skills… I wonder if my brother would…

Received a card from our local MP this morning, do you think I should return the favour and send her this mug?

That’s really nice to get that. At least someone is noticing enough within politics to write you a card.

Thanks to @Mark I’ve sent up a pay it forward donation through paypal. Any money given will be used to give product to people who are desrving of it or might be at a disadvantage through no fault of their own. And just go towards supporting the local skate community.
