[color=Magenta]My son has been pestering me about buying him a skateboard.
Does anyone know where I can find one in Hong Kong?[/COLOR ]

There is a skate shop in Festival Walk called Double Park. I think it has other branches too...

I found a complete skateboard shop in Causeway Bay called the 8Five2Shop.
The staff was friendly, english speaking and well experienced with everything on skateboards.
They sell skateboard shoes, clothing, video's, etc.
Basically a skateboarders dream shop! Apparently it's been around for 6 yrs.
When my son went in ,he was amazed to meet the top skateboarder in the world hanging out right in the shop. Bonus!

Anyway, the address is 2F/ Rm 3 United success Commercial Centre. 506-508 Jaffe Rd. Telephone #9250-8351. # 2573-9873.
It's a bit tricky to find but, if you are facing world trade centre you go towards wanchai for 1 block. You'll see a mannings on the right hand side and the United success commercial centre on your left. It's beside a pet shop.
Good luck

There are a few good ones in CWB, X-game, 8Five2Shop like Aiya said, and some other ones... limited amounts of brands and gear though.
Any why do they stack the boards in the wrong way in every single store...the boards gets warped..geez! :P
Doublepark isnt really a skateshop if you ask me, more like a wannabe skateshop that doesnt really have "it" too much nike feeling over it.
