Just happy to check it out for us and make sure it was safe. Not even a discussion about billing us for it. There was a recommendation for better bearings, which we took.

When the system started playing "Africa" by Toto, and I had my new sandals in hand, I knew it was more than serendipity, 'I was meant to be here'. I read some pretty awful reviews about the customer service here, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but I hustled in with my normal jovial jive. Mike kindly greeted me and led me to exactly what I thought I was looking for, Cobian sandals. While Cobian's weren't at all it for me (too tight in the middle of the foot), as I browsed Mike perfectly balanced providing support/giving me product knowledge with allowing me time to try things on slash check things out. In other words, anytime I had questions, which I had quite a few, he was there, but not in a hovery way. He informed me of other products, but really only when it was appropriate. As soon I tried my first pair on, Mike let me know where to find the nearest mirror. I knew I was leaving the store with sandals today, and Mike made that experience a breeze-no hiccups, no funny business, just excellent customer service. The same is to be said for the rest of the lively crew, including the associate who rung me up. Truly, nothing but good vibes here. Thank you to the entire crew! Again, this place was clean!

The guys running the shop were super chill and gave us good prices for decks, trucks, t-shirts, bearings, and grip tape today. We would visit this place again for sure.

The owner is the real deal, deeply rooted in the community, well-connected in the industry, and always down to share stories about legendary skaters he knows personally. He's built a space that's more than just a shop, it's a hub for skaters to chill, hang out, and talk all things skateboarding. What really sets this place apart is how much the owner truly cares. The positive vibes are unmatched and he's constantly creating opportunities for the community. He's always available to talk, whether it's about skating, life, or just kicking it and sharing stories. If you ever have a slight issue or feel some type of way, just reach out to him--he's a super open and genuine dude who actually listens and wants to make things right. Thanks to him, I had the chance to meet Sean Cliver and the Strangelove crew at an in-house event. Such a sick experience. Even got my wife's Strangelove Dunk SB signed. If you're into skating, culture, and good people, this is the spot. Support local, stop by, and see for yourself.

We learned about Soul Grind and were told all of our options since this was our first time buying a skateboard. We have zero experience. Like, nobody in our family has ever ridden a skateboard prior to our visit to this store. The shop is small but has everything any skateboard enthusiast needs. I learned that most skateboard shops are really clothes and accessories retail stores with a spatter of actual skate boards. Soul Grind has exactly what they advertise...Skateboards. With Olivia's help, and with much attention to detail, we chose a beautiful black board with red wheels. If you are new to skateboarding like we are and want to go to a store with a great selection of boards and even better customer service, you need to stop by Soul Grind. I forgot to mention the most important details about this store. You have an option to customize your board from scratch if you'd like! Check them out and support a tiny, but mighty business. We are very happy with every detail about our visit! Thanks, Ashley Head and sons
