Gifts_sm
We’ve received a bunch of emails in the past few weeks from people asking us what gifts we recommend for the holidays. We figured why not do a post and share our suggestions with everyone? There’s truly so much great product coming out of New York so it was hard to narrow down our suggestions to only 10. Here’s a variety of stuff that we thought would make great gifts to anyone who loves New York skateboarding. Check your local skate shops for availability and pricing.
