There are some solid skateboarding shops all around the GTA, but sometimes getting to them can be a little bit tricky. For those of you who dont live near a Sanction style shop or a Board Sports or Hog Town, you can now head over to Sportcheck. Certain sportchecks around the GTA have a skateboarding section with good equipment for beginners all the way to advanced. The choices might be limited but it will get you what you need. Give them a call before you head over!
