It's core business was Skateboards and Snowboards (and related accessories and apparel). We dropped the snowboarding and took on some Roller Derby merchandise for a short period and then we relocated to Hampden early 2013. We dropped roller derby completely and concentrating solely on skateboarding and skateboarding related apparel, accessories, shoes, etc. The relocated shop was sold to Vu' Skateshop and continues to be a thriving core skateboard shop in Hampden. Vu's first and flagship store is in Parkville on Harford Road.
