Motion Boardshop

Some of our friends are out here signing 30-year mortgages and having kids... meanwhile, we’re out here scheduling a week-long downhill getaway, sleeping in tents, grilling hot dogs, and rocking a helmet sticker that clearly proves we cannot be trusted with adult money. 🛹⛺️🌭
​Choose your fighter.

with video evidence of successful tricks!

​Landing the trick: 🟢 Easy.
Landing the trick when someone says "okay, I'm recording": 🔴 Error 404: Skill not found.
Why does the camera always judge us like this? 👇

“I’ll ride you hard all winter and ignore you for six months.” — You, probably.
​Don't treat your shred sled like a 1 night stand. Bring it by the shop for a thick coat of summer wax so it doesn't dry out and resent you by November.

​

really added some skills to his skateboarding over the winter, and it is pretty easy to tell.

​The math is simple: if you want to stop skating like a fridge on wheels, you gotta put the hours in. Lucky for you, Seattle has free community sessions happening every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday. Check our other recent post for the full schedule breakdown, grab some fresh wheels from the shop, and we'll see you at the next session! 🛹💨

Rules of the lens: Rule #1. 🎥👇
​When you yell "Yeah dude, I'm filming!" you are signing a sacred contract. You aren't just a friend anymore; you are a dedicated documentarian of chaos.
​If you are the designated camera operator for the session, your responsibilities are absolute. You have ONE job:
​Keep them in the center of the frame at all times.
​NEVER. STOP.** RECORDING.**
​We don’t care if they clip a rock and eat pavement. We don’t care if you get attacked by a sudden swarm of angry bees. We don’t even care if your mom calls you mid-hill to tell you you’re adopted—you do NOT hit stop. The footage must survive.
​Exhibit A: taking one for the team, and our filmer flawlessly commits to keeping them centered. 🫡
​Drop a 👇 in the comments if your crew's filmer needs to take notes.

._john._ learned to Standup Slide on the Toes, and we celebrate these breakthroughs! He has been skating a very long time and is able to skate down almost any road with ease and adding this new slide is just a feather in the cap for our community minded homie.

When he isnt learning new skills, he is hosting SLUGWARS SATURDAYS (formerly kiss&tell fridays) as well as organizing and hosting the entire Seattle Summer Slip and Slide Bike Path Race.

Thank you to Henry for keeping the stoke alive, and giving back a ton of time to help foster the next generation of skaters.

​Beautiful, right? Anyway, we don't have an HR department, so if you wipe out at 35 mph down a steep hill, that’s between you, gravity, and God.

Alternatively you can achieve this higher vibrational frequency by riding around on a longboard, and dont necessarily have to be flying down a hill to achieve this. Summer is coming, and with gas prices being this high, now is a perfect time to skip traffic, save money on gas, and quiet the chaos around you while riding a longboard you bought from Motion Boardshop.

Its tough to grow old qhen you are living in the moment.

We are open 7 days a week, and we have boards for the whole family.

Trust me, its so much more fun to go skating as an adult. No curfews, no homework, you can finally afford the cool boards, and all your friends are off work at 5pm, which is nice because you really only have about 1.5 hours of skating in you before you get sore and tired.

Skating in your 30s is peak.
