NJ Skateshop has grown and spread its positive impact on skateboarding for close to 10 years now. Founded and overseen daily by Steve Lenardo and everyone’s 2nd (or 3rd) favorite skateboard journalist Chris Nieratko, NJ skateshop continually does it right. Truly dedicated to skateboarding, the crew at all 4 of NJ’s stores bust ass daily for skateboarding and skateboarders, continuing to make videos, host events and support skaters not only in their local communities but worldwide. If you’re ever in the NJ area do yourself a favor and stop by one of their shops. They are true skateboarding shops at their finest. Thank you NJ staff, team and founders, you guys are a huge part of why skateboarding is so great.
PS - If you’re out of the area check out the NJ website - some of the best shop shirts in existence. (come on NJ by Nature… sorry if it dates us but that one was great)

Located in the heart of Boulder, CO Meta skateboards is everything you could ever want in a skate shop - just skateboarding plain and simple. For over ten years now they’ve been supporting the Colorado skate scene with new team videos every year, annual skate contests and a store that any skater can call their home. I can speak for myself and a few other past Meta employees out there when I say I don’t know where I would be with out Meta skateboards, the support that owner Sam Hines gives to every skater that walks in the door is what keeps skateboarding going. Thanks for everything Sam! If you’re in the Colorado area be sure to stop by the shop and say what’s up, and did I mention all month long is thunder month, get 10% off any thunder trucks purchased.
