they would always be the company that would hook up my buddies shop with the most product for comps and events.
They've been cool to NOLA too.
And to that thing in Afghanistan trying to teach those poor dusty desperate youths to skate.
And to cool skaters like Gilley, Steamer, and Elrigdge (sp?) in Philly.
Speaking of philly. When someone posted a thread about core shops staffed by dicks I wanted to mention that Nocturnal has huge potential for being a bunch of pricks, but they were always super cool to me:
1) always said Hi and how can I help you
2) would sit down next to you on the bench outside and bullshit and hook you up with the whats what where and when
3) let me go downstairs and collect a shitload of boxes when I moved away
4) that english/irish/welsh dude with the sideburns is a riot
5) Elridge lurks there with his dog and is all cool about shooting the shit
6) the staff hardly knows shit about skate trivia or the latest releases or any other kind of industry bullshit
7) their small deck wall is full of legit shit, almost no BS filler (ok, still a few plan B's)
