SUPPORT AUZZIE SKATEBOARDING

Bought from the first time from Drew last week. All arrived as ordered plus a free Cons sticker - freebies ftw

bonerless - which site was this from? 4 day delivery sounds to good to be true from an american site lol

was thinking of hitting up
solsticesupply.com from the snow thread but was worried bout the sizing cause i remember when i was in the us the sizes where larger then the aus versions

Drew sells man dildos now? Man have I missed out!

melbskater it was ccs :O

anyone know a good online shop to get electronics off?
i need a new head unit for my car.

Yeah chip I've been looking into that as well, I know eBay is okay, but I wouldn't mind getting a full speaker package

got my package off ccs

took 5 days?

pretty decent

saved like 150$ on a set up.


deal with it australian skate shops your own mess

umm how exactly is it their own mess?

customers going online to purchase cheaper products?

Oh fair enough thought you were gonna go on a rant or something, makes sense now...

Drew infamously is known for not liking the term 'supporting Australian skateboarding' but in all reality the only reason why I have chosen to keep purchasing from Australian shops is because they're the only place I can get Australian brand boards...

Rant? Even I don't have anything in the tank tonight.

Imgne - thought you were getting the DIY board company / graphic deal, or is that way old news now?

Speaking of aussie brands, what was funny was going in to a shop and seeing a whole lot of Kewday boards still on the wall.

Gotta wonder if they would even still be ok to skate - wood been sitting too long or whatever.

Who of aussie brands is there anyway still doing wood:

Elan
Four
Passport / Seven (different but really the same)
GMTA
Hoon

All the others are just blanks / same as shop boards with their own company graphics aren't they or have I forgotten some worth mentioning?

hey mark.. define for me "still doing wood" also who are "All the others are just blanks" who are all the others?

Probably another one of the look back at it and wonder what I was on about, even from my own perspective.

Meant: Brands on their own, not just distro blanks / their own brand of deck, eg kwala had kwala boards. That would be all the distros boards NOT mentioned as OTHERS.

Feel free to add to the list, as I only thought of the first couple, then added the others.

Hoon - actually started as wheels, now doing wood, so new to the aussie board company list.

Just looked at the shop to see which boards imgne would buy and that is what I saw from that list.

I guess I would have forgotten someone?

CCS sent me the complete wrong setup faggets

buy illicit. hand made in melbourne :)

bought some more css stuff, 7$ tee's and jackets for winter.

Has anyone used a US mail forwarding company? I was looking at one called Bongo but it's hard to tell if it's a scam. Has anyone had any experiences with any of these?
