In a day when the jobs of City leaders, Parks and Recreation and DPW are tough enough, along come those pesky teenagers looking for a skatepark. Seems simple enough- just Google yourself up a search for Skatepark, skateboard, skate plaza or skating and your be rewarded with hundreds of thousands, possibly millions, of hits. And rightfully so with Skating growing like no other sport in the world it makes sense!!

But just like any industry along with this growth comes marketing dollars and glossy catalogs... and unrealistic warranties.

I know I've only recently ranted on this topic but this time I have a solution. In the past I only drew attention to the problem but now I'm laying down my poker hand and "calling". Who Skates is officially offering to honor the warranty of any of our competitors...

Here's the deal- Who Skates offers a very easy-to-read 3 year warranty with no fine print and only obvious exclusions such as bike damage, acts of God (earthquakes, etc), vandalism or outright abuse. Cracking? covered... loose coping? yep, that too. But if the allure of a limited 15 or 20 year warranty like those offered by our competition is more to your liking then simply cut and paste their warranty into a new document and we'll sign it.

The question is will they sign ours?

TTFN...
