What skateshops in Albuquerque?

**dough_boy** · 06-03-2008 03:40 PM

I am heading to Albuquerque to skate the ditches at the beginning of August and was hoping someone would point me towards some cool local shops - this is my first visit and I am going for the purpose of gettin' me some of those world famous ditches on my longboard!!

I have a list of ditches I want to hit, but am a little confused on how to get back to the top of the long ones......a little help??
THANKS!

Silver Skate shop- silver and yale, by UNM. My favorite, it's the only shop i've been to where the people who work there seem to like skating and other boarders. Not the most educated about longboarding, but willing to learn.

Someone posted a ditch list in the Parks, Pools, And ditches forum.

Bear, you still got my number? You should give me a call some time this summer.

We are open 6 days a week, but less hours on Sat. I work 8 hours a day, so I only work 5 days. My manager takes Sun. and Mon. off because he and I are the only ones who work Sat. So I got stuck with taking Friday off....

It's stupid...
