Why Skateshop Day Matters
Independent skate shops are the backbone of skateboarding culture. They sponsor local skaters, support DIY events, run competitions, build scenes, and create spaces where beginners feel welcome. Skateshop Day isn’t about hype – it’s about keeping these spaces alive.
Buying a deck from your local shop instead of a big chain actually makes a difference. Showing up to an event, watching a video premiere, or even just grabbing a sticker helps keep skate culture community-led, not corporate-led.
If you can, go to your local shop. Talk to the staff. Support the people who support skateboarding.
