bunch of bankers!

No sound but still rad! Just imagine you are listening to DEVO or better yet put a record on whilst watching

why DRUG STORE?

This is a question which has been raised a number of times, as you might expect. Here are some answers...
1, Why not? it's just a name
2, Shape of skateboard=Shape of pill
3, Skateboarding as a "drug"/addiction/way of life.
4, It sounds good, and people notice it
5, lots of cool graphic possibilities
6, We sell Heroin
Hopefully that will satisfy the curious, and if not just be glad these names were already taken...

palace waywards


We are way proud and super stoked to announce the arrival of PALACE a deadly new kind of skateboard company. Boards, tee's and wheels all arrived today and are looking hella fine. The emphasis here is on strong graphics and a very different look and feel to other brands. Olly Todd is the first pro for PALACE after quitting scientologist Earl Hickey's Stereo brand. A bold move for sure, so come buy his board and help Olly buy some dinner tonight

Tony Hawk rides them


Just got some of the new THEEVE trucks in with the titanium axles. Super strong and super light, get some of the new shiz as ridden by the bird man and other dudes like Gareth Stehr over there.

street conversation

just heard this outside the shop...

to set the scene- 2 people aren't looking where they are going and almost walk into each other...

swaggering chav: "look where you're going mate!"
crackhead: "got a problem then? come on!"
looking backwards chav: "wanker!"
crackhead: "grow up, prick"

you gotta love good old squattergate!

Blueprint Berrics Boards now in


the new Blueprint Berrics boards are in and looking pretty fine. 7.75 inches wide and limited edition, you better snap one up quickly if you want one!

beauty and the beast 2 is in...

it's totally awesome. contains lots of skateboard wizardry from girl and anti hero dudes (and some extras), but no wizards staffs (thank the lord, that game got rinsed hella quick) this is what skateboarding is all about, a big group of friends on the road, camping, beers and good times. Makes you wish it was the summer already

skatepark update

A few tweaks have been made to the plans, nothing major just bits and bobs to make the whole thing work better. It's now looking like building will start at the end of this month, as long as they can dig up the frozen ground! It's coming people- roll on summer!
