Hello all skaters!…read more If you're interested in learning how to skates, come check out APB Skateshop and get your first skateboard with them. We were welcomed by Maynard. He seemed knowledgeable about skateboarding. He talked about the speed and acceleration. Skateboard wheels come in different sizes, design, colors, and durability. It's important to know how fast or slow you're moving and if you're looking for an easier or a little harder in turning those wheels. He recommended what is best for beginners without any knowledge of skateboarding. Maynard helped from start to finish. He helped with selecting the wheels, trucks, bearings and axle nuts. I love how he likes to get you involved in putting it together. The experience made it more enjoyable than just having to watch him. This place is located in Chinatown so parking is a little harder to find. You're lucky if you can get street parking. If not, there's a parking lot that charges $5 for the day. It's a bit much but if you plan your day accordingly then it's worth it. You can plan to have breakfast or lunch then check out the open market then hit APB Skateshop for your skateboards supplies! Win-win to me!!! Thank you for reading my review. Have a great weekend!

Hourly rates and private sessions were super affordable. Willy had us set some goals for the private lesson, took us through some fundamentals, including safety exercises, and then had us progressing in no time.

We were recommend to seek out proper Rideshop for training by a local skate shop. He started with Proper and very quickly became a great skater. He is so happy with the coaches and how they are great mentors and motivators... he is excited to show them when he finally gets that new trick and they are just as excited for him. We love Proper!! The staff, coaches, facility and all the camps and trainning opportunities are absolutely wonderful. I would give them more stars if possible !

I got notification that the order was ready on Saturday. Its a good thing that I checked on the bag because it was missing the shoulder strap and was dirty.
