I do!

I buy most of my stuff at the Hammer (queen street) but i ocasionally go to flood,
some people say that boardsports(yonge) also has a good variety of parts.

there is a hill at the loblaws just off of millwood and redway i think, it's behind the loblaws, its VERY steep but pretty good condition, you better have a full face and leathers.

this is now a sub thread.


if you are ever in the area of north york civic centre (mel lastman square) go to the food court (bottom level) in there and find the sub place tucked in the corner (ran by two really nice asian ladies) beside the chinese food place.   i honestly think its better than bellies.

if you get a chance to go there, there are tones of amazing spots, same with downtown toronto.

I'm big into longboarding, in fact I make most of my boards and sell them too. An easy way to meet up with a lot of longboarders in toronto is to go to a board meeting.
check this site http://toronto.theboardmeeting.net/
