I want to get back into Skateboarding. Questions for east bay skaters
I'm in pleasanton and still fairly new to the area. I was curious if anybody could recommend a great shop near by for all my skateboarding needs? Somewhere with decent prices and a good selection of decks, trucks, wheels, etc...
I haven't skateboarded in a few years and I've just been missing it and want to get back into it. And with the weather now I picked the best time to want to get back into it... LOL! Well I at least want to get a new deck and be prepared for the next dry day so I can start up again.
Also what are some good spots to skate at? Preferably around Pleasanton, Dublin, Livermore.
TIA!

I buy my stuff these days at Cali Skatz in Fremont but I thought there was a shop or something at Stoneridge Mall?
What kinda spots are you looking to hit up? Parks, street or what..?

Thanks for the replies!
For right now, mainly just street. Somewhere with grindables and where I won't be bothered by rent-a-cops. I'm not really looking for a skatepark yet because I probably suck *** after not skating for a few years, and don't feel like racking my nuts or breaking my tail bone infront of some awesome skaters.

id hate to say it, but i bought my last board from copelands... but id suggest activemailorder.com for their blank decks, which are cheap and real good. ccs.com is in shambles these days, their site is confusing and ill maintained. id go with a local privately owned shop or active.com

another good site is industrial skate shop or something like that online. cheap shoes....like brand new lakais for 30bucks. cant beat it. got a deck off there too for cheap. www.industrialrideshop.com/IRS/industrial.aspx
There is a very good skate park in Pleasanton. It's right by the Regal 20 theatres. Exit Hacienda and go towards the movie theaters. Instead of making right into the movie theatres go straight and the road will T. Make a right turn. Go past the sherriffs office and then on the right side is a park. There is a great skate park there. Maybe i'll see you there. I like to stay in the bowl.
