Title: Reno, NV
Post by: stef on February 16, 2011, 10:36:00 PM

I'm going to Reno next Saturday, and I was hoping to at least find a good skate shop there.  I'm flying, so I'm not sure if I'll be bringing my board.  I'm going to be staying right near the airport and might not have access to a car.  Suggestions for other places to check out would be great, too.

I'm not usually into making a huge effort to hit parks, but the Reno park (Rattlesnake/Mira Loma) is actually super fun. And down the street a ways is a really fun loading dock spot with a ton of banks of various sizes.

It’s been like 6 years, but the guy that ran Classic was kind of a turd to me. Maybe he’s in a better mood now.

He still seems like a turd when he does his little videos on IG but what do I know?
