New Shop Opening!

The shop that I ride for, 720 Board Shop, is opening a new second location in Centennial, Colorado. I never realized how much work it is to build a shop, but wow. It is. We had to hang up slatwalls, and that sucked because they were so heavy and soft, they were like trying to fall over whenever we picked one up. Adrian also got a bunch of graffiti artists to come and paint the walls and the paintings are SICK!!!!


Me working VERY hard. I'm either really lazy or innovative, sitting on the skateboard painting the trim... weeeeeeeeeeeeee!
The shop is located off University and Arapahoe (more specifically, Vine and Arapahoe), but it's among many new shops in a new shopping area. It's actually right next to an ice cream place, Maggie Moo's!! YUM!!!!! It's also one shop away from a new movie theater, so it shouldn't be too hard to find!

The grand opening is sometime next week... I read a press release that said it would be Friday, Aug 28th for all the stores in the area (except for a few who will open in November) but someone said Sunday... hmmm. One thing I know for sure is that 720 is opening THURSDAY, AUG 27TH at 10AM!

Some more exciting news is that we're carrying more brands, we just got DC, Oakley, Capita (YEAH I'M GETTING THE SPACE METAL FANTASY!!!!), maybe Never Summer snowboards (maybe because BC, another shop, is kinda close by) and I know I'm forgetting some. We also have Technine, Rome, Ride, Arbor, Electric, Dragon, Spy, Roxy, Quiksilver, Nomis, 32, Neff, Grenade, Dakine, and so many more. We also have tons of local brands, like Eyedenity Threads, Bing Energy Drinks, Gnar bar, Candy Grind, and bunches of other stuff. Note: these are the stuff we have at the other 720 location, so I'm not guaranteeing that every single brand we have there will be at the newer location!

We also carry skateboards and wakeboards (I know we have Liquid Force stuff) but I don't know skateboards... ha ha ha so you'd have to come in and see for yourself.

Here's a sneak peek at some of the many kick ass graffiti designs we have throughout the shop:

Do you see the skateboard on his backpack?!

You're probably wondering, "WTF? Why are the slatwalls in the first pic white and brown in the second pic?" The thing is, when we got the walls, they were supposed to be "ready-to-paint" but the damn walls kept absorbing the paint... it took a lot of coats for the paint to finally get solid. SO we painted the other side with primer (Like 3 coats!). Moral is, "ready-to-paint" may not always be true... hmmph.

Anyways, come check out the shop, buy some things, and support your local shop! You won't regret it!

Once again, we open tomorrow!!

THURSDAY, AUGUST 27TH AT 10AM

See ya there!
