There’s nothing like your first crush. And if you’re anything like us, you crush hard and often. This is where we pay homage to all things worthy of lusting after.

Sara fancies skaters. Nothing gets her attention like the sound of skateboard wheels on pavement. More newsworthy, Sara fancies the newest addition to the Tendernob’s collection of tiny shops overflowing with coolness—DWNTWN Skate Supply.

Officially launching today, 9/11/09, the brick and mortar home of San Francisco’s own Roughneck and 48blocks.com also carries a variety of hand-picked skate decks, hardware, apparel, and accessories. With Huf just around the corner, DWNTWN is in good company, and to prove they are among SF’s finest they have the honor of being the first stop on this year’s Bart Tour skate event this Sunday.

DWNTWN Skate Supply is located at 644 Hyde Street in San Francisco. Open 11am - 7pm daily. 415.913.7422.
