Purple Skunk in San Francisco Rules!

I heard about this great shop through word of mouth from an X-Games rider and headed over to Geary in S.F. to check it out. They've got lots of great gear and a totally schweet long board selection.
They didn't have the part I needed, but ordered it for me and shipped it to my out-of-state address at no extra cost. I ended up needing some service after the sale, and they have always gone the extra mile to insure that I get what I need. I have known many good skate shops in the past (my first "Black Knight" board had clay wheels to give you an idea how long I've been skating), but the Purple Skunk rates as one of the very best shops ever.
It's worth a drive into the city or a visit when you are in the area. Purple Skunk Rules! Nuf said.

herb basically gets whatever my friends and i need. and whenever we're there, we spend time in there and talk about longboarding. not that anyone goes out of their way to go to north new jersey(and with good reason) to longboard, but if ever there for any reason, stop in. good shop, and herb's got stories about riding that keep me and my friends busy trying s#@!. good work.

Just a word on the Flux riser lights I got from the purple skunk skate shop recently! WOW! I had the pleasure of riding mt. tamalpais the other night under the full moon with the Berkely crew as a memorial for a fellow skater that passed away. It is a long hike but well worth the skate with 12 bros... great times. I got the blue one for the front and black light (purple) for the rear. everyone was jealous in the begining but half way down we stopped and i asked what everyone thought. the concensus was they are cool but the rears where distracting other than that they are rad and everyone wanted to fallow me cause there are some dark spots. but all in all they are awesome!!!!!! there are different colors and they are all good if you ride at night you need them! check em out at www.purpleskunk.com and get a set for your friends too.

Whoa! I visited this shop a week ago while I was in San Francisco, and I am completely amazed with the stock, staff, and especially the customer service. This shop is definitely in its own league. I appreciate all your help Lizzie.
Thanks, Austin

Awesome shop. I am in town for Stampede and picked up a Tahoe 52 for my wife and a 62 for myself. Toronto should have a shop like this. Service is awesome, staff is great and they have over 150 completes in stock with 20 demo boards to try out. Their parts section is bigger than most skate shops I have been in to. So if you are looking for a board in Canada, give Red Nik a call or Email them at (web) www.rednik.com or Email at surfrednik@shaw.ca. Thanks again to Billy and Tab for all your help.

Thanks a bunch, but I found one more shop within a reasonable distance. After NC Boardshop in Los Gatos, the next closest one is SkateWorks in Palo Alto. Santa Cruz is closer than that! So if this NC place doesn't have them, I'll give you a ring-a-ding.

I live in the 3rd largest city in California! A million people (plus the rest of the South Bay) shouldn't have to drive 55 miles to buy the hands-down best bearings for the common man. I am going to try to find out if that "408 Skate" or whatever it's called still exists.

Gary Fluitt and Asphalt Playground offer exceptional service, expert advice and excellent prices - especially if you are into slalom.
Gary (who is a Roe team member) responded to countless e-mails from me in regards to a new slalom set-up. With his advice decided on a 03 Roe Unlimited and this board is incredible - exceeding all of my expectations. His knowledge and experience is top-notch and he is willing to help you get the right board under your feet.
I would fully recommend Asphalt Playground for all of your boarding needs.
Gary, you help was greatly appreciated.

Oh boy, they moved and now they suck! They have only Lucky bearings on display, with some other bad brand hidden under a record player where the girl working there can't find them. It's a fashion shop now, pure and simple. It is hip and modern with no substance, the Ladytron of skate shops. There are more brands of shoes than there are actual trucks in the store. I would imagine that a Zumiez would have better selection!
There isn't a set of China Bones Reds for sale in all of the South Bay.
