    Default Bestboards branching out to the Philippines

    Hey all fellow pinoy longboarders. we are planning to branch out in a bout a year. we would like to know your thoughts on it. what gear would you like to have ud stock, etc. would be helpful to know. - carving, cruising, downhill, oldschool, sliding, etc.

    whiskey hill, i might be in need of a partner if you guys plan to expand. we can do something together if that's something your interested in.

    the ultimate downhill run that i know would be the BuDA road - road from davao to bukidnon. super smooth. great corners and some are even banked. this is gonna be the place where everyone will want to hit so get ready. practice your tucks, coleman slides, footbrakes and start collecting good safety gear. to hit this road and hopefully the siera madres is at the top of my priority list when come for my next visit. hope some of you can join me.

    please visit Bestboards - Surfboards, Skateboards, Surfboard Hire, Bestboards to get an idea on what we already stock.

    would anyone know if we can get some leathers made in marikina? gloves would be locally made too for sure. i've been dreaming of this for the last few weeks and cant wait.

    This would be cool!

    I'm really new to longboarding but an introduction of new brands here would be really great. My personal choice would be from loaded

    I hope all your plans materialize real soon! (like this year hehehe)

    Good luck with that bro! And yes, hopefully you get your store up soon so I'd have incentive to go home! haha!

    Gotta get me an OSD

    Oh yeah, might as well ask. Do you ship to Singapore? Would you be able to ship over an OSD?

    Let me know!

    thanks a lot guys. im frothing already over the idea. yes we are most likely to bring in most of what we stock but could be more or less. but still, anything can be ordered anyway so thats a good thing. we just had our first batch of bamboo boards made from china. they are good entry level boards so im thinking of doing another batch for the philippines when we move.

    i can ask about shipping to singapore from NZ but once in the phil, we will ship all over southeast asia.

    looking forward to meeting all you good folks. ive got more ideas but ill save that for next time as i dont want to jinx it.

    cheers guys.

    hey dude, how much do you think you'll need? my sister is working on getting one up in davao. so far they have around 300k from coke i think. they say its also not enough.

    i have property in davao that i can dedicate to a skate park. all we need is funds from sponsors. have you tried getting sponsorship? i have a few people i could approach in manila but not sure if they are willing to dish out some cash. if i win the lotto here, ill build a park in cebu, manila, davao and cagayan. hahaha. wishful thinking.

    july is coming closer and i can hardly sleep. let make it a point to meet up for a skate session. a big one.
