Welcome to the site

welcome to the site

I've been into this stuff for over 25 years now.. from skating and riding Bedford Square (gone...), all the spots, ghetto set-ups and ramps/parks we've had in Exeter... to parks and spots all over this country and others.. running contests, entering contests, doing photos & words for 'Ride' mag, and for the last 10 years, this, the Boarding House.

To me, running a local shop is the best combination of all, a real shop where you can check where the parks are, use the tools to fix your stuff, meet up..

This shop has been part of the Exeter scene since '84, here's to more! Thanks for your support.
