The Real Deal
Even if it isn’t us… if you have a skater owned shop in your town, go there and keep them in business. Don’t get boards or skate gear at the mall (or from some lame skate-leech) unless you really have to… to a non skateboarder-owned shop, you aren’t anything other than a paycheck. That goes for mail order too… if you mail order a board when you have a skateshop nearby, then stop and think about what you’re doing. Why wait a week for a board that you may or may not like when you can walk into a real shop, step on a deck, and walk out with something you know you like, and help to support your scene at the same time?
