PURPLE SKUNK is the coolest shop ever! It has the best longboards and old school boards. Lizzie and Rodney are very nice and helpful people. Even though its a small shop they have the coolest selection of boards i've ever seen. I definetely suggest that if your in San Francisco you should check out the Purple Skunk. You can get more info on the Purple Skunk website.

Hey, if you are anywhere near Springfield, MO and are in need of a longboard call or stop in at the Springfield Skatepark. The number is 417 868-8758. I just got my board there about two weeks ago and it is SICK! The park is worth a visit if you haven't been there.

Dex and Zach Stanley visited the awesome Purple Skunk with their Dad Wednesday afternoon, July 5th, 2006. They live in Monroe, North Carolina, and were visiting San Francisco for the first time. Zach is six years of age, and Dex recently turned 12. They want to thank Ms. Lizzie, Godzilla, and Timmy at the Purple Skunk for their superb and attentive service to youngsters! Ms. Lizzie and her staff made Dex and Zach feel very special. Their skateboards from the Purple Skunk are their prized possessions!
With heartfelt thanks,
Clyde
Attached are two shots that you kindly let us take with you.
With heartfelt thanks,
Yours sincerely,
Clyde

Purple Skunk are amazing. They hooked me up with the greatest deck, and I love how they offer you upgrades on everything you could imagine. Plus, they've supported freestyle, slalom, and longboarding in the Bay Area for years! As if that wasn't enough, if you want to try out the decks before you buy, they're totally cool with that.
If you're ever in San Francisco, stop by the Skunk and check them out.
Thanks Lizzie, and keep rocking,
~Christian

Purple Skunk rocks the house! Lizzie and her crew are trully awesome. The staff is very knowledgeable and extremely friendly. At Purple Skunk they don't want to just make a sale, instead they want to make sure you are getting the product that is right for you and your budget. The equipment selection is off the hook (probably the most extensive in the Cali) and their prices rock! Now that I found this little gem, I plan to buy all of my future boards from them. If you live out of town check out their website it has everything you need.
Thanks again Lizzie for hooking me up with a great board!
Bonus they even love it if your bring your dog into visit the store.

Hello, if people are into amazing longboards then people should be into Barefoot Boards. Barefoot boards are a new longboard company in Colorado. They are filled with amazing customization, style,class, and every word you could put with outstanding.They also give the rider the time of their life. Barefoot boards is a little low key comparitivly, but the growth is exponential, they are looking to expand their stores, but need some advertisment and riders. Please give us some feedback. THANKS

Purple Skunk kicks my ass!! I can't enviosion a cooler skating destination in San Francisco, starting with water and a buscuit for my dog! Solid quality products at way more reasonable prices than I'd have ever expected (sorry for bearing the news I'd have paid 2x for my deck!) if they only had more couches and and an ottoman to rest my feet on I think I'd still be there. Thanks folks for an amazing skate shopping experience!

Purple Skunk's gotta be the friendliest bunch of knowledgable folks that I've come across yet! I visited their shop recently on a short weekend trip to San Francisco, California from DC and I have been singing their praises ever since. It's a small shop with alota heart. I've since visited their website as well and they even have a section called Skater Support where they're honoring a local skater that's going through surgery & on going dialysis!
Every time that I stopped through I was treated respectfully and greeted as if I was an old friend and a very valued customer. I never once felt like I was being pushed to buy & they have the perfect location for your to take boards out for a test run!
I bought a board and one of their cool Purple skunk tee's which they have in men's AND women's cuts. The store was well organized...everything was easy to find & anything that wasn't, I was quickly directed to the right place to find it. I was never talked down to OR over looked when I needed assistance (and I had tons of questions-waaay toooo many questions to be perfectly honest). Over all, I just really felt like they were happy for ME to be there (NOT the other way around as you can be made to feel in some of the other shops I've been into). Purple Skunk's definately on my to-do list for my next trip to San Francisco. I'd recommend this place to EVERYONE that's appreciative of great customer service.
Even their customers were friendly! Hahaha!!! Gr8 experience with this shop! Do yourself a favor & Check them out! They rock! :o)

Purple Skunk is an awesome shop. They didn't have one thing I wanted, so they called and e-mailed me to make sure I got what I wanted. Rodney helped me a lot with all my questions and promtly sent my package.
Thanks guys

He all, my name is Rob Schoenlein, and I am the owner of a new small company called Flat Land Boards. We make quality boards at a fairly reasonable price. We are lookin for some skate shops any where to carry our boards. We are looking at mass production within the next 3 months but we would like to get some boards out there and see what the public thinks of the boards.
Thanks

Just a shout out to Toby J. he's one of our local heroes. His is a small but cozy warehouse shop/park set-up. It upsets me that people don't support him as much but, in times of need he's always on the scene giving all that he's worth. Thanks Toby and to the locals who may read this show up on something other than a rain day and i'll quit whinin'.

I ordered a board and trucks for my son, and was very pleased with the fast turnaround time and the care taken in packaging. I do a lot of internet purchases and this one was great. The board is beautiful and I have one happy kid!
Thanks

This is the second time I've stopped into George Orton's Random X Boardshop in Westminster, CA. If you are passing through Orange County, CA you should go out of your way to look him up. George provides the best service I've ever gotten in a skateshop. I think he actually likes his customers!

I'm not 'affiliated' directly with this shop, but know both the owners, dudes I highly respect... So, I'm just letting y'all know what's new in town!
Podium is not just a skate/snow board shop, it's also a Museum, featuring some very cool, rare boards and shwag from back in the day. Come check it out in Manchester, Vermont. You'll be stoked on the gear, and wowed by the old-school stuff lining the walls! Say 'Hi' to the owners too, Nick Pedemonti and Ross Powers.
For me, this place is a time warp, where you can just stroll thru, gawking at all the cool toys, some of which I've been lucky enough to play on!! :-D
