    I never was good at skating, but I always liked skate art and fashion. So, from time to time, I like to browse this local skate shop and look at its tshirts and shoes. They have a lot of cool designs and carry most of the brands you would expect. Personally, I like a lot of their house brand clothing. It's a little different, kind of edgy and keeps its local flavor. If you're looking for kicks, their footwear section is well stocked. I saw good looks from Nike SB, Converse, Vans and more. Like I mentioned above, I was never good at skating, so I'm not an expert at the hardware part of the sport. However if this is something you are interested in, the store looks to be well stocked with what you'll need. I saw a large selection of decks, trucks, wheels and other accessories for sale. If you're a little unsure of what you're looking for, please feel free to ask. The associates are happy to help.

    We visited yesterday to get our 5 year old a bike and a helmet for our toddler…read more Brian helped us and was beyond helpful!!! The way he spoke with my daughter to help fit her to the right bike was just so sweet. He was helpful and encouraging of her. He was also very respectful. Always asking if he could hold on to her shoulder to show her how to ride or to hold my son's head to try on the helmet. I will definitely be recommending Erik's and Brian to anyone I know looking for a bike. We'll definitely be back!

    I took my bike to Erik's Bike Board Ski on 95th St., Leawood, KS. The serviceman examined my bike,…read moresaid small repairs would be $55.00 (including labor). The bike was ready the next day. I asked about the price of a tune-up; he said "$150, but you don't need a full tune-up. We will only charge what you need." I asked about the crank shaft. He said it was fine. I had issues with the brake lines, but no crank shaft issues. This is significant because I went to the Erik's on 135th St., Overland Park, KS before going to the 95th St. location. I was told the crank shaft needed to be replaced and the cost would be about $147 (including labor). They said if the bike can't be repaired, I could get a comparable bike for $850. I am so glad I followed my instincts at went to the 95th St. location for a second opinion. Great service and honest values goes a long way and I will always return to Erik's on 95th St. Thank you!

    I got kind of excited when I saw the sign "Escapist" on the side of the door at the shop next to…read moreSmall Cakes. Their sign said, "Hoodies, 20% off." I'm familiar with Escapist (it used to be over on Barry Road). It's a local; shop, and they have their own skateboards, and clothing, besides carrying the usual brands. Walked in, and there's a few wracks of clothes, not much. Maybe 20 hoodies, and none of which I was looking for. Jeans, and a wrack of t-shirts. They do carry a near full line of skateboards. Skateboard, and supplies are kind of becoming part of the general public, but people should be mindful of their equipment. They should be mindful of the wood that is the deck, the grip tape. The wood is generally maple. Stores like this sell the real thing. Stores like this can keep This location has a good stock of them, and many shoes. (mostly Vans). Vans are fine, but don't grip the grip tape as well as DC's or Etinnes. This is a generally uncolorful store, nothing too interesting. That's unfortunate. I hope they can manage to stay afloat in Summit Fair. Maybe if they can,they can improve the shop to make it a bit more lively.

    I took my seven year old in to buy his first real skateboard yesterday. The owner was very…read moreattentive, helpful and polite. He took the time to visit with us and help my son with his board and helmet. Certainly worth the drive across the city to visit this shop!
