SkaterHQ.
They want peoples money.
And nothing else.
At all.
But, somehow, since Moonwalk have introduced themselves, this has happened.

Phoenix Decks
http://www.skaterhq.com.au/browse/details.asp?ProdID=138022
Good: They are Phoenix..
Bad: $350
Ugly: Its Blue..

PROTO Brass Knuckles
http://www.skaterhq.com.au/browse/details.asp?ProdID=136146
Good: Probably the best SCS around.
Bad: $90
Ugly: Comes with a rusted Starnut, but you obviously can't see that.

MUTTS Quad Clamp
http://www.skaterhq.com.au/browse/details.asp?ProdID=138268
Good: Never used one, but apparently clamp amazing.
Bad: Blue, but they sell other colours.
Ugly: No point of it, its massive, it doesn't make sense.

PROTO Senior Threadless Fork
http://www.skaterhq.com.au/browse/details.asp?ProdID=138421
Good: I don't think these would snap unless Ryan Williams got a hold of them.
Bad: Nearly $200 for forks, but i guess it would be worth the money.
Ugly: Comes threadless only, a lot of people ride threaded still.

What i'm trying to get at is that SkaterHQ are weird.
They get products, and then use other companies descriptions for the products.
If you can find another company that sells the same item that you want, don't buy it from SkaterHQ.
Shipping takes ages, comes in smashed up box with no bubble wrap or cling form.
Don't bother.
Good products, bad service.
SkaterHQ, helping scooters, the wrong way.

350$ fucking bucks for a phoenix?! 280$ At Moonwalk <3
Seniors, 200$ at SkaterHQ, 110$ at Moonwalk <3.
Proto wheels, 65$ at SkaterHQ, 52$ at Moonwalk <3.
Fuck skaterHQ, little kids probably have no fucking idea who Proto or Phoenix are.
SkaterHQ, you can suck my dick.

Okay mate, im seriously sick of little kids like you, who have such little experience in this sport, coming on here, and preaching this unsubstantiated crap about SHQ. Almost every part of your argument is completely wrong.
First of all you write like you're in the new york times, get over yourself, what youre saying is nothing new. Your argument is all over the place, you talk about how skaterhq is bringing in "ugly" products, which is entirely subjective, then you say that some products would be worth the money and then complain about how expensive it is?
Skaterhq is located on MANLY BOARDWALK, which in terms of commercial rent, is top 5 in Sydney. Having to pay more money to stay located where you are means you have to CHARGE MORE for products.
Thridly, if Skaterhq only wanted peoples money, why the fuck would they have been supporting this sport in its earliest stages in 2000-2005 when scootering was one of the least popular and least bankable sports? They have imported more metal cores, yaks, wheels and scooters than any other business in Australia and I know that for a fact. Not only that, but they are continually importing all of the newest products so that kids like you can buy them, so how are they helping to sport in the wrong way?

Also, using someone else's description of a product is perfectly normal, it sums up the product in the best way possible, so why not use it?

Get your facts straight ffs.
