Slappy's Garage, San Diego CA

I tried calling to ask if they could assemble my board there if I brought them all the parts and they told me not to call them but to text as if I had done something wrong by calling I then asked if they provided the service and they quickly said “if you buy it here” I then asked how much and they said however much they feel like asking for. WHAT

Super helpful and friendly folks. I came in looking to get new griptape and bearings for a deck I bought from somewhere else. Brendan swapped over the trucks from my beat board, and put new bearings and griptape on, all while juggling a bunch of customers coming in for a limited edition release. Cheers to the whole shop team for such a cool and welcoming vibe (especially for a noob)

Cheers!

This place is awesome.

I was in town for a day without my setup, and Brendan let me borrow some spare trucks and wheels to use on a deck I bought so I could squeeze in a session at the park nearby.

These guys genuinely care, much appreciated!

Great place to get your boarding equipment. They have Vans shoes, clothes and lots of other labels. You can find skateboards and I think they might repair them there too. Not sure. The store has a very laid back vibe and you can browse without being bothered.

Staff member Brendan was super attentive and patient with my very picky daughter. He reassured her that her first board has to be perfect and he was not pushy at all. We ended up not buying on our first visit, and returned after checking out other shops. Upon returning, he showed her new stock and she ended up choosing something they already had. Brendan's enthusiasm and celebration was priceless! He happily assembled the board and my daughter is super excited to shred. The service was awesome and I ended up buying Slappy swag as well. Will be back to buy my board next!

Visiting from out of state and this is a super dope shop. The staff was extremely helpful and attentive. They have so much in stock that I was a little overwhelmed but they helped me to find the exact setup I needed. 10/10 recommend, plus they have free shop stickers.

Small shop, but helluva lot better pricing & quality than a Zoomies. Limited selection on tools, but huge variety of boards. Decent wheel options.
