Home Skateboard Shop — Attraction in Louisville

I worked all summer long when I was 13 to get my first complete, when all my buddy's were getting their parents to order theirs from CCS I cut lawns for 10 bucks did my siblings chores and when I walked in that store, (Albeit 2 or maybe 3 locations ago) the guys made me feel like I was Rodney Mullen. I took my 12 year old nephew in for his first board and just like it was 20 years ago, they made him feel like the coolest dude in the city. They didn't just build his board for him, they walked him through each step, explained to him how it would ride if his trucks were tight vs loose, made him feel like he picked out the best possible deck he could have chosen.

Good group of guys in an awesome shop!...

Always go by the shop and pick up product when I’m in Louisville. We drove up from Tennessee today. The homie broke his board unfortunately, we hurried over to the shop. We got there at 4:59. The doors were locked. All we needed was a board and grip. Maybe a minute or two in the shop. But we got there attention and explained we were from out of town just needed a board real quick. And they had a rude response of sorry about your luck. And then mocked us as we walked back to the car. Not pleased with this experience I won’t return. I’ll bring extra product from the local shop back home. I understand your hours are till 5 but the attitude from the employees was...
