Welcome to CalStreets & Boarder Labs, the ultimate destination for skateboarders, collectors, fingerboard fanatics, and Onewheel riders. Whether you're here to shred, cruise, or hunt down that legendary reissue deck, we've got the gear—and the expertise—to keep you rolling.
We specialize in skateboards, longboards, surfskates, and electric skateboards, including the latest from Evolve. Looking for something smaller? Our Blade Fingerboard Park & Proshop is a haven for serious fingerboarders, complete with pro setups and a dedicated park for tiny tech tricks.
Onewheel riders, you’re in the right place! As an official Onewheel dealer, we stock Pint X, GT, and S models, plus all the custom parts to dial in your ride. Need new footpads, float plates, or fenders? We’ve got you covered—just don’t ask us to hack your firmware (Onewheel made it, not Illya 😉).
For collectors and old-school heads, our ReissueDept brings legendary skateboard graphics and classic deck shapes back to life. Whether you're looking for a wall-hanger or a retro ride, this is where the past meets the pavement.
Located in Vancouver, BC, since 1978, we’ve been keeping the skate scene alive before Onewheel even existed and when knee pads were optional (bad idea, by the way). Drop in, gear up, and ride out—
your next session starts here!

Chris Yandall helped push skateboarding forward with innovations like skogging, one-foot skating, high-speed runs, and the Samoan Squat, making this deck a proper piece of skateboard history. 🌺⚡🛹🌊
A proper blast from the 80s! The Sims Lester Kasai Pro Model came in at 10 1/2" x 30", bringing that full-width classic shape and unmistakable vintage Sims energy.

Fresh Spitfire goodness just landed and these Reynolds and Ishod wheels are looking way too good not to show off 👀🛹 The Reynolds Soft Sliders 53mm are built for performance, durability, and style, and the Soft Slider formula is made for a smoother ride without losing that true performance wheel feel.
More impact absorption, less vibration, dependable grip, and a clean, controlled slide when it’s time to let ’em loose 💨⚡ Spitfire has been holding it down since 1987, and these are a solid reminder why they stay at the top. 🔥
Girlz just wanna have fun — and these two clearly came to the right place! More creative builds are officially in motion, including a skate complete with Spitfire Skate Like a Girl wheels and a fresh Berlinwood fingerboard setup getting ready to come to life. 🌈🛹✨

🔥 The Santa Cruz Tom Knox Punk Reissue Deck is back at CalStreets, and this red beauty brings full old-school Santa Cruz attitude with a shape that still looks ready to cause trouble. At 9.89" x 31.75", it has the size, stance, and presence reissue fans love.

⚡ Footbags are simple, addictive, and built for all-ages fun: keep it off the ground, pass it around, and try not to blame your shoes when the circle falls apart. Hacky sacks are even seeing fresh interest again, proving some classics never really leave — they just wait for the next kick.

Today’s vintage skateboard ad brings you another one of those fine SIMS ads we loved, this time featuring the legendary Lonnie Toft Snub model. Shorter nose, big platform, heavy attitude — exactly the kind of setup that helped define the wide-open experimental era of late-70s skateboarding. 🛹💥
Lonnie Toft was one of those riders who made skateboarding look dangerous, powerful, and completely alive, and his SIMS Snub model captured that same energy in wood, urethane, and pure skate history. This was before everything got standardized, when board shapes were still evolving fast and companies like SIMS were pushing the limits with wider platforms, bold designs, and ads that made every kid want to ride something wild. 🔥🍁
Another beautiful blast from the CalStreets archive — when skate ads had soul, riders had signature shapes, and the future of skateboarding was still being carved one board at a time.
Benoit has been putting so many miles on his Onewheel GT-S Rally XL that he already needs a fresh tire — and what a beauty this thing is. Big, wide, grippy, and ready to roll over the kind of nonsense that normally makes your ankles start negotiating. ⚡🛞🔥
This is the widest ride ever from Onewheel, and the XL tire looks like it was designed for riders who see cracks, gravel, grass, and sketchy shortcuts as invitations rather than warnings. Benoit clearly understood the assignment: ride hard, rack up miles, replace tire, repeat. 😎💨
🛞⚡ GT-S RALLY XL: BIG TIRE ENERGY HAS ENTERED THE SHOP! ⚡🛞

Bullet trucks feature high-grade axles designed to resist bending and slipping, with stable turn geometry for a smooth, dependable ride.

🙌 Simple, silver, useful, and ready to roll. Grab a pair of Bullet 110mm Trucks at CalStreets and get that small setup dialled. 🔵🛹🔥
🔥 New at Blade Park — the Five Luck Tech 5 Sausage Party Fingerboard Deck has arrived, and this one is bringing full snack-table chaos to the session. Weird graphic, killer shape, and the kind of fingerboard energy that makes you look twice before you even set up for the trick. 🔥
