"Holy God, no more friggin' mail order." CCS is here. I order out of CCS website about once ever 2 months, I feel almost, that CCS is a shrine.
Yesterday was the grand opening. I walked into a skateboard paradise. The entire front area is apparel. Every brand of skateboard shirt, jacket, some jeans, and female clothing, too. Sunglasses, watches. Whatever. Think Loma Vista Hardware in bright in your face colors.
The back of the store is a wall of skateboards decks, and a few wide boards. Impressive display, Enjoi, Habitat, Baker, Element, CCS, Alien Workshop, Toy Machine, Girl, Plan B. I saw a Rob Dyrdek Deck I would've bought for my son, if he'd needed one. (We go through a deck about once a year). then at the counter is the hardware, and wheels. All sizes. Several brands of hardware.
It'd be a kick ass place to work. Heck, I'd like to work there, myself. When I go back to Oak Park Mall, I saw a female Famous Stars and Straps shirt I want. But instead of mail ordering it, I can drive and get it, along with my son';s clothes. (Almost every shirt he owns was bought at CCS mail order.) The store has a sampling of what's on the website, and a full selection of decks.
I imagine if you watch the website, there will be demos there. And know what? I love to watch skateboarding demos. I've seen professional skateboarders and CCS is one of the larger sponsors. I'm thrilled to be writing this review. read more
