You’ll find Location Skateshop at 296 4th Street, Bremerton, WA. They are open Wednesday through Sunday, from noon to 8 p.m. Located in a portion of the former Amy Burnett Gallery building, where Pacific Avenue intersects with 4th Street, this place has style!

Location Skateshop can be reached online at their site, on Facebook, and on Instagram.
Adam told Experience Kitsap:
“I've been skating around here for 20 years. We’ve skated the skate-park at the YMCA since it opened in 2005. So, me and a couple buddies decided to pull the trigger and open up something to hook up the community. We rented the place in February and opened in April.”
Among their inventory of apparel and skateboards are FireSide shirts sourced from Bremerton. On Location Skateshop’s store and vision, Adam explains:
“We're slowly adding to it and it's definitely not in its final form. There hasn't been a skateshop in Bremerton for over 20 years. There's a lot of skaters around here, and everyone's got to buy online or go to Seattle to buy the good stuff. This is a little hang out for people while other people skate out front. It's a really good gathering place.”
Experience Kitsap noted that skateboarding has made its debut, this year, at the Summer Olympics in Japan, and has been approved for the 2024 Olympic Games in France. A sport whose mainstream time has come!

Sinabi ni Adam sa Karanasan Kitsap:
“Nag-skate ako dito sa loob ng 20 taon. Na-skate namin ang skate-park sa YMCA mula nang magbukas ito noong 2005. Kaya, ako at ang isang pares na kaibigan ay nagpasya na hilahin ang gatilyo at magbukas ng isang bagay upang mai-hook up ang komunidad. Inarkila namin ang lugar noong Pebrero at binuksan noong Abril. "
Kabilang sa kanilang imbentaryo ng mga damit at skateboard ay ang mga kamiseta ng FireSide na nagmula kay Bremerton. Sa tindahan at paningin ng Lokasyon Skateshop, ipinaliwanag ni Adam:
"Dahan-dahan namin itong idinagdag at tiyak na wala ito sa huling porma. Wala pang skateshop sa Bremerton sa loob ng higit sa 20 taon. Maraming mga skater sa paligid dito, at ang lahat ay kailangang bumili online o pumunta sa Seattle upang bumili ng mabuting bagay. Ito ay isang maliit na hang out para sa mga tao habang ang ibang mga tao ay nag-isketing sa harap. Napakagandang lugar ng pagtitipon. ”

Adam le dijo a Experience Kitsap:
