Thomas Tucker 26 Tricks

Skater owned skate shops are a dying breed. Slowly the places you love to hang out and talk about skateboarding are going out of business. They are being replaced by a mall store, or an online store, where you have no idea who the person behind the counter is, Or the person shipping your board to you is. You have little to no hope of ever running into these people at a skate park, or these people being able to tell you the difference in trucks, or the wood shops, or even grip tape. The future of skateboarding, and skate shops, is literally in your hands. Here is a little edit that Nyle Lovett just put up of Thomas Tucker. Thomas owns a skate shop in Vincennes, Indiana called Homebase Skate Supply. Thomas is a great dude, and a great skateboarder. This is proof that real skate shops are out there. These are the places you should support.
