Cheapskates Christchurch is one of New Zealand's longest running Snowboard and Skate stores. Its roots run deep in the local skateboarding scene, from its early days on Manchester Street in the 80’s then on to be a mainstay of the High Street retail landscape right through the 90’s and 2000’s, up until the February 2011 earthquake. The Cheapskates Christchurch store was one of the original specialist snowboard stores in New Zealand and continues to be a leader in rider driven product.
We pride ourselves on quality service and staff who are passionate about the industry they work in. We carry a great mix of the best and most core brands. And with all price points covered, there’s something for everyone. No part of skateboarding or snowboarding is uncool, and doing it is all about having fun. We are in the industry, and still doing it for all the right reasons.
From street to bowl, old school to park technician, cruisers to longboards. Powder dogs to park rats. Beginner to seasoned pro and good old fashion top to bottom shred it all...we are down with anyone that's standing sideways.
We're a skate skate shop that carries skate footwear, clothing and accessories plus all the skate hardware you'll need to get rolling and keep rolling. And if your not shopping and just needing to use the shop tools to sort your setup, read an old mag, get some local intel on spots to skate...no problem. We're here to help.
The Snowboard Shop at Lincoln Rd is one of the best in NZ. Passionate, knowledgeable service and an amazing selection of the best brands in snowboarding. We also hire quality gear at great prices. Need advice, need help putting your new gear together or sorting parts to keep you on the snow. It’s all part of what we do.
