 Our Thoughts



My son is ten years old and he only recently started enjoying skateboarding.  As much as I love to encourage outdoor and athletic play, I have to admit, this made me nervous. There is a degree of risk with any skateboard, but if I was going to let him ride one, I wanted the best, and I believe we found it with Shaun White Supply Co. We received one of the Thrash skateboards to review, and my son couldn't be happier. He loves the cool skull design and the fact that it was created by a real Olympic medalist. He has spent the last few weeks outside in rain and shine mastering his new board, and thanks to the fact that its well made and sturdy, he is coming along with it pretty well.




 As a mom, I loved that the design is sturdy and secure. I like that the board offers a firm grip that helps new skaters learn how to keep their balance. But for all the more professional skaters out there, it will also be the perfect board for mastering tricks. Back in the day, my husband was a master skateboarder, and he thought the board was amazing.  If he didn't have a bad back, I think he would have swiped it from my son and tried to relive his glory days.  If you are looking for a the perfect board whether its for a beginner or the champ of the skate park, Shaun White Supply Co has the perfect board for you.
