808 Skate

Josh was super helpful and accommodating with the boards I ordered! couldn't have asked for better service. thank you so much!!

We bought our seven year old his first deck from 808 Skate. Super kid friendly, kind staff who took the time to answer his questions, and it's a local business. We will be back! Thank you again for an awesome experience for our family.

It was our 1st time to the shop. Actually the 1st time it was closed and only doing online orders. The two staff were great, attentive and courteous especially to my son. Very friendly and were happy of give us information and suggestions on the products we needed. I would definitely recommend this small shop. Its clean and well organized and has everything you need. Mahalos to the two guys and we were happy to help support local business

Stopped by 808 to pick up a pair of shoes. If you're not familiar with them, they've been around since my older brother skated, so a while. They are of and about the local community, and that shows in their efforts and their customers. As soon as I got in, service and staff was professional. I love that they have their safety guidelines posted on the window and that they had hand sanitizer readily available. In terms of merch, they have a great selection of brands and skating accessories. In terms of shoes, also a good selection, including Vans, adidas, Nike SB, and Lakai. Transaction was smooth, and I was in and out in a few minutes. Would definitely recommend this shop, especially when you want to support local. Bonus: great social media pages and communication.

My daughter has been wanting to learn to ride a skateboard. So, we looked around Ala Moana and a couple of town places that sell boards. I never felt comfortable asking questions or the staff never even bothered to approach us. So, today we ventured to Kailua and am so I glad that we did. The store is brightly lit and the staff greeted us as soon as we walked in. We walked in and started looking at the decks. A staff member, Makenzie, came over and asked if we needed anything or had questions. He was super knowledge, patient and included my daughter in the decision making process. We picked out everything and he built the board for us while explaining all the parts to us. They've made a customer for life!

Trevor was so helpful in hooking my boy up with his first board. He was very accommodating with what would be best for a first time skater. They have an amazing selection of boards, clothing and shoes. Also got my other boy new pads! Thanks 808 Skate!

Several months ago i saw a man wearing a t-shirt referencing an obscure artist from the 80s. He told me he bought it at 808 skate . I checked online and the store did not have my size in the color I wanted.Today , I finally came in and bought the shirt in a black instead of pink . The two men working were very nice and helpful. They make the shirt themselves and said it's too expensive to order more because the reference is not well known. I was bummed, but I understand they are running a business. Still , great experience with friendly staff. The store is very clean and well organized.

Went to 808 skate about a week ago to get my son a board. He had a cheap complete from a local chain. Went in with minimal knowledge of what we were looking for. We were greeted as soon as we walked in by a couple of the staff. Browsed around the decks to let my son look at graphics etc. a couple minutes went by and one of the guys asked if we wanted help finding a deck. Worker recommend a size and showed us what was available in that size and went into the back room and brought out more decks for my son to choose from. He educated us on the differences in trucks and wheels. My son picked out his deck, trucks, bearings, wheels and grip tape. The guy was so helpful we went through the whole things again for me. He offered to put everything together for us but we opted to take everything home and learn how to do it ourselves. We've been skating them almost every day since we got them and notice a world of difference from the pre assembled boards we got from the shopping center. We will definitely be back for new decks in a while. We're eating through ours learning how to manual and dragging our tails across the road. It's been a great bonding experience for my son finding out about skating and me rediscovering a childhood joy I had many years ago. We're really glad we came across 808 skate on yelp and made the drive out to Kailua to visit them.

great selection, helpful crew. Had everything you could need in there, will be going back

Called in reguards to sneaker release, man on phone was very rude and not explaining rules clearly.
