old school skate shop
« on: April 29, 2025, 12:30:44 PM »
does anyone here remember the name of the late 80s/early 90s skate shop on the corner of Blanding/Kingsley? If I remember correctly, it was in the corner space of the strip mall. There was also one in the OP mall at about that same time.

Sounds like you are talking about Board City. They sold decks, trucks, and clothing for skaters.. as well as snow boards. My old faded recollection was that Jeremy spent winters working at a ski resort and thats why there were always snow boards in the shop.

Thats it!!!!! I remember it being the best one in that area. If I recall correctly there was a Skate/Ski or Surf/Ski in the mall also. This has been driving me nuts for awhile. Thank you.
