Went to Bummy Town for a little bbq and ledge sesh last week.  Just got the grill smoking when the parking attendant told us to take a hike.  Thanks to Cole and his smooth talking, we got to kick it until night fall.  Lots of chicken and a boom box, good time for sure.

even some girls came through the dirty bummy.

yeah, that's butter on the birds, mmmm.

Just got some new shirts in the store last week and I was finally able to add them to the online shop for all the party people outside of the Bay Area to purchase and support. All shirt prices include shipping and handling so there are no hidden costs or fees. What you see is what you get. I’ll be adding more items to the shop in the near future. (sign up for the mailing list while you’re at it)

Came across some cool reviews up on Yelp.com about Mission Sk8boards. Thanks to all the fine folks who took a little time to write something nice about the shop. I’ve added a few blurbs below. Click here to read more

“Scott (sic)- one of the shop guys at Mission- hooked me up with a great deck, trucks, and wheels! Put it all together in a jiffy too.

I was additionally stoked to see him interact with a young street rat that was hanging about the shop. Scott was totally cool with the kid – they talked while he put my board together.

So thanks Mission Skateboards – and special props to Scott – for getting me started on my latest obsession, skating. Let’s hope I finally pull a decent ollie before I jack myself up too badly.” -Art O. San Francisco

“They keeps it simple. They keeps it real.” – Wes T. Menlo Park

“Mission Skates is on the rise. Their selection is growing weekly, keep checking back. Friendly service, clean shop. As skate shops go this one is a keeper and I have been to them all, everywhere, forever. So take my word on this one. BONUS POINTS for being so close to the Potrero del Sol Skatepark!!!!!!!!!!” - Steve R. San Francisco

Just got back from Price Club and picked up some more essentials for the shop. Check’em out below and stop by the shop and…well, you know the rest. Trucks, wheels, cheap shot bearings for all your skaters on a  budget…hell, that’s pretty much everyone. Hehe.

More shop news, the first annual Mission Sk8boards presents: Alley Rat is coming soon. Flyer should be ready tonight or tomorrow and it’ll be time to spread the word on everything. Sunday Sept., 27th starting at 1pm. Mark your calendars now. More details to follow…but there will be prizes and whatnot. I’m more interested in the whatnot anyways. Ha.
