I keep forgetting to take pics, but here's one. yet another new board in exchange for good grades!!  see kiddies, work hard in school and reap the rewards! Kerrisdale will soon be known as the smart skater capitol of Canada.

Nice work little man! 

or something like that. here's a nice little montage of the Tampa Pro 09 finals. Enjoy..

Ask 10 different people and you might get 10 opinions on the role of a "shop sponsor".  The way I see it, a shop is here to support skateboarders of all ages and skill levels. Its not all about who's hot this second and who can I put on my team to make the shop look cooler.

So with that I introduce our elder "skatesman" -  Wee Wong. The guys been skating since the early 70's!  By all accounts he was a badass little ripper from East Van that would shred harder than most. Well, he still rips and after seeing a video of him skating Bonsor in the snow I felt like the guy deserved a spot on the team.

 "started skating at about 9 years old in east vancouver in and around 72 or 73 with a cal 240 like most kids in that era. still remember being so happy of not falling off for about 20 feet. we did all the high and long jumps, pineapple flips, slalom and all those olds school things of the 70's. the skateboarder magazine is what we used to subscribe to and tried to duplicate the tricks by alva, peralta and all those dudes. 

we used to skate granville bank, west van bowl was the first taste of bowl riding, then came seylynn, china creek, skateboard palace and the nelson halfpipe. not sure of the exact order of the last 3 mentioned.

then came about 1980 and stopped skating all of a sudden when everything died down till 2003 when i discovered hastings bowl. all of a sudden just had to get back on and wanted to ride that dam thing. anyhow, that's just a quick snap shot of what happened"

Your first "real" skateboard is something that you always remember. I've had a gajillion in the last 20+ years, but I can tell you that my first was an Alva Eddie Reatigue with Gullwing trucks and Rat Bones wheels.

One of the sickest things for me at the shop is helping kids pick out their first board. Yesterday was a bright eyed kid named Dawson who according to his dad "worked really hard and got a good report card".  Today was 10 yr old Devin. Its his birthday so he got a board and some new sneaks too. Thought I'd snap a picture to commerate this moment. Shred the rad young ones!!

Over here on the West side of town expect with a chance of

Enjoy the weekend!! 

Let me start by saying that Jordan Hoffart is one of my fav's. Kills it on a skateboard, rolls level headed and he's always smiling.

He just turned pro recently for Powell Skateboards and we're all going to celebrate this momentus event Saturday April 11th with the Canadian premier of Powell's latest video - FUN - at Boulevard Skateshop!

There's two showings. 7pm - all ages and 9pm (19+). Limited capacity. Best Behavior = more of these

So come by, meet the team and watch a fun new vid. See you there! 

Its time to announce our first big event of the year. STEP IN THE ARENA !! An afternoon of skateboarding good times at the legendary Kerrisdale Arena. This street style showdown will be open to advanced and sponsored amateurs. There's going to be tons of prizes from lots of rad sponsors and obstacles that are sure to please. The day will be broken up into smaller events like:

A best line contest - Skate Dice - Best Trick - Highest Ollie - and more!!!!

These will all be a little different than what you may be expecting though..

The event will be free to watch and there will also be some free skate lessons offered by some of Vancouver's top amateurs before the event. Limited capacity for that one, so email us if you are interested. 

Stay tuned as there will be more specific info and announcements as we get closer. 

More new arrivals today. We'd like to welcome Adidas to the mix. Their latest foray into skateboarding these last few years has produced some amazing shoes for skating and an impressive team lineup. Check them out on a recent tour of Japan..

Important info coming really, really, really soon! Here's a hint...

First installment of "Meet the Team" appropriately kicks off with the first guy on the team...

Nelson Conway!

I first met Neltron, while working at Supra Dist. last year. While all the other youngins working in the warehouse were cool to me. He chose to grunt at me once in a while, and maybe the odd nod. That is until one day he came looking for spare change to get a pop. I offered him a loonie if he'd eat the oversized glob of wasabi that came with my sushi.

"yeah, sure, whatever.." he chortled. Ten seconds later he was red and leaking saliva from his facial orifices.

So I gave him two bucks, and the rest they say is history!

Being that he's a Kerrisdale loc, its only fitting that he runs the shop part time and gives the little neighborhood kids someone to look up to...
