For Skaters By Skaters!
Excellent service, A good selection, A little practice ground in their area too. There are some amazing stock in there, I found it really easy to settle on something I felt happy and comfortable to skate on.
I would definitely recommend these to a friend and plan to go back here more for new parts. The Setup of boards is free too and the two fine gentlemen there are very friendly and have a good knowledge.

Great stock, skaters who know their stuff!
These guys are skaters who run a shop for skaters. They know their stuff and are happy to give advice and help with assembly and gripping. There is even a mini ramp to test out your new deck. If you can't see what you're looking for they have an extensive range of suppliers so will be sure to get hold of it for you. Well worth a visit!
