East Coast Core Skates!
East Coast Core Skates, is a New Jersey based online longboard retailer with a distinctive flavor and style that can only be described as, well, East Coast!
“I purchased my first longboard in 1999, and I’ve watched the sport evolve immensely in the past 10 years,” says owner and skater Mark “stringtheory” Campisano.
“The scene here on the East Coast is really moving in an amazing direction right now, and I felt there was a genuine need for a true skater owned and operated shop that can zero in on some of the amazing brands the East coast has to offer, such as Earthwing, Comet, and new comers like Phat DeanZ .”
When asked what separates ECC from other shops out there, Mark was quick to point out his skateboarding pedigree, which spans over 25 years, and his passion for helping people.
“If you’re a member of the various longboard communities found online, you probably already know I spend a good amount of time helping people who are new to the sport make intelligent decisions based on what aspect of skateboarding they are most interested in. I feel my experience is especially valuable when it comes to selecting quality products that will meet or exceed my customer’s expectations.”
When asked what the future holds, Mark said he’d just be happy to make it through the Holiday rush intact. But also, “keep your eyes opened, I’m working on some collaborative ideas with other East Coast based companies such as Surf-Rodz, especially in the area of events. We’ve been kicking around some amazing ideas and I’m really hoping to make a positive contribution to the scene out here and ultimately help the sport grow!
