The Chinese have become renown for making cheap products by substituting quality ingredients for anything cheaper, like putting radiator fluid in tooth paste - yep, that's poison. But toxic products can come from anywhere. In skateboarding the most toxic of skateboards can be found in discount, toy and sporting goods stores. These cheap (inferior) skates cause injuries and simply fall apart in a matter of days, if not hours.
Fight off these toxic products by purchasing quality equipment at your local skate shop!
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.
