Shop Review
Ron Jon Surf Shop Cocoa Beach Florida
On 4/11/1999 dem wrote in from ()

Holy huge! Stopped in on vacation and spotted a large selection of longboards (skate and surf) on the second floor. Black 29, Envy, Sector 9, Gravity, cool handmade boards and a bunch more. If you are anywhere near Central Florida go there. It's on A1A in Cocoa Beach. Rent a surf board and jump in the ocean while you're there.

Frontside
On 4/6/1999 David wrote in from ()

I haven't seen any Sector 9 boards in norway. But there is
a shop in Stockholm that sells sector 9, Frontside located
at Norrlandsgatan. All board are 2400 SEK except for the
nosewalker 2500.

Yes that is expensive but I talked to the guys at Sector 9
and they said that the shipping from CA to sweden would be
about $100 so that is not so good deal either.. =( Well I'm
of to Frontside today after work to buy a Cloud 9 board...

Smoked Monkey's Board Shop
On 3/30/1999 Gabe Sheeley wrote in from ()

Smoked Monkey's is definately the coolest board shop in Central Oregon. We are not a very big town but since were next to the Cascade Mountains we have very big hills that hurt a lot when you crash.

That sucks about Tiki, I really liked that place, but
there is always RIC's aloha classics, he sells some stuff,
maybe he'll have more longboard stuff this summer. Why
did it close up?

Tiki Surf Shop
On 2/22/1999 Mike Manzi wrote in from ()

RIP TIKI SURF SHOP
I propose a moment of silence for the apparently now-closed Tiki Surf Shop on Long Beach Island in New Jersey. For the skeptics out there, all I can say is you proboly had never been inside there or talked to Nick (aka TikiMan), who was a virtual encyclopedia of skate knowledge. This guy knew more about skating than most will forget. It was the only place I could buy a complete without having to tear it apart and rebuild it before being able to skate! For example: he stocked fully serviceable ABEC 5 bearings with rubber seals for $14.95 per set! I also picked up a complete for my 6 year old nephew for $60 which had a 36" 12 ply birch deck, red Tracker Trucks (6Tracks w/Lite Base), ABEC 3 bearings, and 65mm 78A Wheels, and full quality hardware! The tiny shop was literally packed with high quality skate gear, some old, some new, some very weird. I recently saw that the entire stock was auctioned off on e-bay for $9000, and I dare say some smart skater with deep pockets probably made off with a cache of exotic/collectable items. I will miss this oasis in the vast wasteland of jive wanna be "skate shops" which I have seen so many of. I hope one day the Tiki Man will return.

San Carlos Street.
On 2/18/1999 eggman wrote in from ()

Ha!
I stand corrected. I do hope they get some stuff in. Ok, I do admit, I have bought stuff at GoSkate. I will be the first to share my shame, but what's a dude to do?

BODEGA? I would not be surprised, Did you see the "convient store" that used to be there? That place HAD to be one! I saw the same dusty cans on the shelves for years! But I hope you are not so desperate that you have to score there!
I am down for a skate, have not been anywhere cool in a while. Friggin rain sucks.
Later late.
eggman.
P.S. Sign up for the longboard lounge.

San Jose shop
On 2/17/1999 Steve wrote in from ()

Hey man, they haven't even opened yet. Wait, that didn't make sense. They haven't had their "Grand Opening" yet. They said something like they were ordering a bunch of stuff for longboards, like the various major longboard trucks (Randall, eXkates, and I'm going to bug him to get Seismics) (wait, Seismics are the ones with the springs, right?), and they haven't got a shipment of longboards yet. Did you see those weirdass teardrop shaped boards? They were like 80's boards in the sense that they had only one kicktail and were short, but they were funktified. As near as I can figure, they were rapper boards because they were all tagged up.
But I digress. The whole point of this posting is to say that the shop really isn't a skateshop, but a "skateshop." Yes, that's right, boys and girls, your friendly San Carlos street skateshop is really a bodega! I mean, how can that place NOT sell weed?
steve
PS: Where else are you going to shop? Go Skate?
PPS: You live in San Jose? We should ride sometime.

There's a really kick ass shop in downtown San Jose. It's in a house right across the street from Pizza A-Go-Go. Just go to San Carlos and look for it between third and fourth.
