i went to this store with the idea of finding the greatest store of NYCm all i found a lame store, they have a few sector 9 and some of other brands, i payed 100 usd for my G&S 3 plys response, and 35 for the 101 indys., when u asked for a price they just simple tell you "hmm like 40 or 50", maybe i went on their low season time, but thye could be better

What Longboard shops?

I just got back from a trip to SoCal and thought I'd check a few of the shops around Huntington Beach, some of which have been touted on this forum. I was trying to find a set of Randall IIs and Flashbacks no problem right?
My experience is that an Orange County Skateshop is just like a Fresno County Skateshop in that their longboard selection consists of a few Sector9 completes and if you're lucky some Gravity boards and wheels. Thank God for SolidSkate.com and Longskate.com, long may they run.

Team Lone Wolf... Response

There are a number of online stores right now that stock Trackers. They usually have better success with longer trucks, and usually shipping is quick, efficient and best of all very reasonable. Longskate.com, Solidskate.com, Latterdayskates.com are some of good reputation.
But here is the thing... support your longboard specialist. New-school storefronts already have a bigger client-base, but longboard specialists are small and need any help they can. Always try to support the longboard industry directly.... every little bit will add up in the future - "represent!"

which one of you shops carry Tracker trucks. i am having trouble finding them, only thing i can find are indys and they all seem to be breaking. Help! Its not just me who is looking for Trackers but a lot of my freinds would like to get them as well. Please do some of us older guys a favor and offer Trackers to us and turn the new skaters onto them as well. Trackers quality as i remeber was always great.

Ride On! is easily the best skate shop in Washington. Any skaters in Washington shopping at other skate shops need to switch. They have a great selection and their service is excellent. Anyone visiting Washington should stop by there and see it. Late.

Around here, if you want to LOOK like a skateboarder, then the board shops are perfect. However, if you are looking for actual equipment, you're better off buying online, because they don't have enough room in the stores due to all the freakin clothes, hats, and other crap.

Yeah, I know Evolve, but it's pretty much a surf-typee place (i.e.: selection leaves something to be desired) and it's not in the D. City per se, but rather in the preppie suburbs.
I'd just like to see a dedicated hardcore skate shop with longboards, slalom, pool/bowl decks, all the gear and wheels, maybe some literature and community involvement, a place for skaters of all ages to hang, maybe a quarter or halfpipe, slalom run, and okay, maybe some popsicle stick shortboards. I think it would kick, and the city has nothing, but nothing remotely like that. Yet, there *are* skaters, and there *are* lots of youth in the city wasting their time, a lot of it blowing each other away. I'd rather see them skate is all. I think there is probably a huge unserved market for a quality skate shop in D.C.
Word up to the online skate brokers if you're looking to invest in an actual space.

hey WesE,
Was there a post before the DC shops cont? I know of migrationboards, but I'm talking a brick and mortar type place where you can drop in and get some bearings or speed cream, or check out new boards and setups and such--so the bane of online sales. Seems like with the number of skaters slalomers apparently around here (I don't know--I don't slalom) the place is just ripe for a longboard/slalom renaissance.
