We get this all the time, skaters walking in and saying, it is true, there is a skateshop in St Leonards.
Many people are surprised because we have grown organically. That is, we have not advertised in magazines, newspapers. We have let skaters find us by themselves. One skater tells another. Rumours abound about a mythical underground skateshop with boards everywhere. It’s like when you go on a skate trip and find a skatepark you never knew about. Or in your travels you find a perfect hotmix hill no one has bombed. Or an abandoned pool unskated.
We are Hopkin Racing. Hopkin Skate. The Hopshop. Skateboards. Longboards. Racing.
