In the beginning, there was surf. But on some days, it was a bust. Flat conditions required innovation, which brought us early skateboarding - styling on concrete waves, getting low on banana boards and carving. Though 60 years of progression pushed skating pretty far past its roots and toward a different form of technicality, at the end of the day surfkskating was the foundation of everything.

We've supported surfskating since the start of the shop, and we're excited to take next step and offer all ages lessons on the finer ins and outs of the style. Depending on whether you're looking to stick to flatground or branch out to bowls, we have three locations for lessons available.

Aegir can provide elbow / wrist / knee pads for initial Golconda Park lessons. Due to distance we will have limited availability for skateboards at St. Mary's playground. New students must have their own pads and helmets, the latter of which is required. If you need to borrow skate gear, please let us know in advance with your booking. If needed, we also sell kid's skateboards, helmets, and pads in the shop.

Private surfskate lessons run weekly, Sundays at noon. We can also book other dates and times pending instructor and student availability.

Golconda Skate Park is located at the corner of Gold and Nassau.
