Don't get pissed at Santa clause this Christmas when you find a $20 piece-of-crap skateboard under the tree. Your parents and grandparents probably don't know anything about skateboarding or where to go to buy a skateboard. It's your job to clue them in.
Wal-Mart may be a good place to buy wrapping paper, but it's the wrong place to go to buy a real skateboard. Get the word out about the location of your local skate shop. Otherwise you might find a pink deck with Bratz all over it!
Knowing about the origin and quality of any product is much more important than ever. As a buyer, YOU have to make sure you're buying a quality product from a reliable source.
Uninformed skaters/consumers need your help. You can lend a hand and help support local skate shops by downloading these SYLSS "Crappy Skateboard" WARNING LABELS (4-up PDF files) and stick 'em on those crappy products you encounter in the mall, discount stores, toy stores and sporting goods stores.
Only independent skateboard shops sell quality products that won't break or fall apart in the first 10 minutes of use. Boards purchased from crappy department stores and gluttonous box-stores are unsafe and will usually result in unnecessary injuries.
Your local skate shop is the only place that cares about you and ensuring you get high quality equipment. Department stores, toy stores and sporting goods stores only want your money. Independent skate shops want to keep you as a customer by helping you get the best products available.
