WE ARE MOVING!!

So excited to announce that we are moving to a bigger store on the 11th of April.
We have quite simply outgrown our current store so when the opportunity came about to take over the legendary Cantina Carnitas building we couldn’t pass it up.

The new store will have an in house cafe serving fresh coffee and food so you can come down have a cuppa or a bite to eat anytime while enjoying our free WiFi !

We will also be tripling our stock holding with loads of new brands coming on board while continuing to support local up and coming brands to give them a bigger platform to showcase their products.

This is what happens when you do actually support your local! We can grow, offer you more and help us support you back as local skaters with a hub, somewhere to chill and buy the best products on the market locally!

In a world full of negativity at the moment this little corner of Hitchin is positive and ready to roll for the good times ahead!

Updates to follow!
