needed new trucks

I needed new trucks because the old ones had cracked at the baseplate and my board was unrideable. Found the set I wanted here and ordered them. Arrived in two days. Mounting them was simple enough. The price was a little higher than one place I saw but the stock was in and the site was easy.

Not the cheapest but fine

Compared with the other online shop I use for sports bits, this one is a touch dearer on the boards. Still, the quality is good and the packaging was careful. I had one query about sizing and the reply came the next morning, which was helpful. I'd order again if I needed something quickly.

better range than the high street

Compared with the sports shop in town, this place has far more choice of surfboard fins and leashes. The high street only stocks the big brands. Ordered on the site and it came in good time. The fins fit my board well and I'm glad I didn't have to drive all the way to the coast.

Surf wax, quick order

Got a tub of surf wax in cold water on my phone during my lunch break. Checkout was quick and it was sorted before I got back. Lasts ages and grips well on my board. No issues, just a solid buy.

Wetsuit booties

Got the 5mm wetsuit booties on the way to work, pretty much bought them on my phone at the bus stop. They were in the box the next afternoon. Warm, stretchy, and they stay on when I'm paddling. No complaints at all.

best place for skate bits

Been ordering from them for years now and they have never let me down. Bearings, grip tape and the odd deck when mine finally snap. The site is easy to search by brand, stock is usually there, and the emails about restocks are useful rather than spammy. My go to for anything skate related and I keep coming back for a reason.

wheels for my first board

Bought a set of 52mm wheels to go with a complete I got for my birthday. They arrived in a padded envelope, nothing damaged, which was good. The wheels themselves are fine but a bit harder than I expected for cruising. Took me a while to get used to them, but for the money it's an OK start.

good value for skate bits

Got a set of bearings and a new grip tape for the price of one bearing set at the big chain near me, so the saving was obvious straight away. Delivery was next day and the packing was fine, nothing got damaged. I checked a couple of other sites and this one was the cheapest for the same stuff. For the money I can't see a reason to go anywhere else for my bits.

good board, decent price

Honestly this was the best value I found. I looked at three other shops and their boards were either dearer or the decks looked thinner. The one I went for is solid and rides well. Delivery was fine, took about four days. Only thing is the grip came slightly off the edge so I had to press it down myself.

Needed a new bearing set

Needed a fresh set of bearings because mine were gritty after a summer of riding. Ordered them on a Monday but they didn't turn up until the Thursday, which was slower than the site suggested. Once they arrived they spin nicely and I'm happy with the quality. Fair price for what they are.

replacement skate wheels

Needed replacement wheels after my old set went flat spotted from a bad fall on the hill. Got them ordered within a few minutes of looking. The colour was a bit different to the photo but still looks decent on the board. Sturdy and roll well. Good for the price.

Sensible prices for kit

They are the best place to get a decent set of bearings without paying through the nose. Ordered a pair of wheels and a set of bushings and everything came together in one box. Prices are honest and the site doesn't hit you with extra charges at the end. Got what I paid for and will be back.

Sorted my board out

Ordered a replacement grip and a set of stronger screws for my old board. Simple process and the things turned up when they said they would. Quality is good for the money and the instructions were clear enough. The price was fair and I didn't pay any extra for postage.

Needed a helmet fast

Needed a helmet quick as my little one was starting lessons on Saturday and the shop near us had nothing in kids sizes. Ordered Friday night on my phone, checkout took two minutes. Arrived Monday. Fits well, straps are solid. Saved me a trip into town and the kid is delighted.

Better than my usual shop

Compared to the big sports chain I usually go to, this site has a much better range of surf wax and fin systems. The prices are roughly the same once you add the chain's delivery fee, which they don't charge here. I have ordered maybe a dozen times now. Stock tends to be right and I have never had a wrong item sent.

better than the sports shop

Compared to the sports shop in town this site has way more choice of fins and leashes, and the prices are a bit lower too. Checkout was quick on my phone and the leash turned up in two days. Would order again.

Sound and tidy

The detail that struck me most was the neat stitching on the rash vest, which seems better made than I expected at this price. I placed the order in the morning and it came the following week, quite as described. Sizing was spot on. A pleasant experience from start to finish.

Grip tape turned up fast

Ordered a sheet of grip tape and a pair of skate tools on my phone on Sunday night and they were at my door by Tuesday dinner. Didn't expect that from a site that's not on the high street. Packed well too, nothing was bashed about. Would order again for sure, cheers.

First order, a skateboard deck

My first order was a complete deck, and I was nervous about getting the size right, but the sizing guide was clear. It turned up in three days. The only thing that bugged me was the returns page, which took a bit of finding, but the deck itself is solid and I'm happy with it.

Ordered a surfboard leash

The leash arrived quicker than I expected, which was a pleasant surprise for my grandson's birthday. I did find the checkout a little fiddly on my tablet, but the staff were kind enough to reply to my email the same afternoon.
