| The year was 1985, our first
shop opened in Derby, it was very small but extremely popular with
the new brigade of skaters who emerged from the urban decay of city
life....... A year later we opened our second shop in Leicester
shortly followed by much larger store in Nottingham which even had
a half-pipe.
We entertained legends of the skateboard industry including. The
Gonz, Matt Hensley, Eric Dressen, Bill Danforth & Tony Magnusson
who all used to skate the ramp.
At the same time we were building up as a mail order business and
quickly established ourselves as a market leader. With this in mind
we decided to close or sell our stores to concentrate on catalogue
and internet shopping.
We currently have a huge database of skaters and inliners nationwide,
who we regularly mail shot with full colour catalogues and email
with the latest offers.
We have also recently moved to a huge warehouse to accommodate our
ever-increasing pile of quality products so we can hold more in
stock than ever before!
Our warehouse in derby is packed with all the latest products and
we have a dedicated workforce of 24 permanent staff and 11 part
time staff (who mostly skate or blade).
Our aim is to provide our customers with the best products, expert
advice and a rapid mail order service.
Our friendly staff are only too pleased to help you with any enquiry
you fire at them.
