A HUGE THANK YOU to Jim DeCoste - Mortgage Broker with Dominion Lending Centres, Dennis Hull, Dominion Lending Centres Maritime Mortgage Group, and Dominion Lending Centres for sponsoring the Santa Cruz Skateboards 2026 Pro Skateboard Demo with Tom Asta & Maurio McCoy and continuing to support skateboarding in Antigonish! 🛹❤️

These guys have been in our corner for more than just one event. They sponsored last year’s Pro Demo, and they also stepped up to sponsor a winter contest we put on at Next Level Skateboard Shop with Maritime Mortgage Group.

What makes that support even more meaningful is that they’re from Antigonish, they live in Antigonish, and they believe in Antigonish. They understand that supporting local businesses, local events, local youth, and local passions helps make this community stronger.

Skateboarding is built around community, and it takes people who are willing to step up and invest in that community to keep things moving forward.

Jim, Dennis, Maritime Mortgage Group, and Dominion Lending Centres — thank you for believing in skateboarding, believing in the Antigonish Skatepark, and believing in our community.

We truly appreciate your continued support! 🤝🛹

Local people. Local business. Local support. Local skateboarding.

🛴➡️🛹 Hudson came in looking for scooter wheels… and left with a skateboard!

Hudson Bradshaw walked into Next Level Skateboard Shop looking for a new set of scooter wheels. But after being surrounded by skateboards, skateboarders, and all the possibilities, he realized there might be a better option. 😎

He picked out the Next Level UFO Deer board, and the second he stepped on it, it was like letting a fish back into the water! 🐟🌊 He was moving, tic-tacing, and figuring it out right away.

His new setup:
🛹 Next Level UFO Deer
🛞 KRUX TRUCKS Chompers
🔥 OJ wheels
⚡ Rush Bearings
🔩 Shorty’s Hardware
🦎 Jessup Griptape Camo Grip

Hudson was absolutely STOKED—and honestly, that's what we love to see. A rad setup for a rad dude! He's been to the Antigonish Skatepark a few times and ripped it up.🤘

And he's wearing a Pete’s Cyclery and Outdoor Shop t-shirt!

Welcome to skateboarding, Hudson! Keep rolling! 🛹💨

We want to send a huge thank you to Eastern 2.0 Waste Management for sponsoring the 2026 Pro Skateboard Demo at the Antigonish Skatepark — and for coming through for us two years in a row!

Eastern 2.0 has continued to show up for the Antigonish community, and we’re incredibly grateful to have you in our corner. This year was a Santa Cruz Skateboards demo with Tom Asta & Maurio McCoy, hosted by Next Level Skateboard Shop.

Two years. Two demos. One incredible community. ❤️

Thank you, Eastern 2.0 Waste Management, for helping us make the 2026 Pro Demo happen!

A HUGE THANK YOU to 989 XFM Announcers Radio for being a longtime supporter of the Antigonish Skatepark! 📻🛹

989 XFM has been there since the fundraising days for the skatepark, supporting the vision long before the concrete was ever poured.

And every time we've hosted a Pro Demo at the Antigonish Skatepark, 989 XFM has helped us get the word out with advertising and promotion. They continue to show up for the skatepark, for skateboarding, and for the Antigonish community.

That kind of support matters. For us, for Next Level Skateboard Shop for Santa Cruz Skateboards for Tom Asta & Maurio McCoy.

Community radio for a great community. ❤️

Thank you, 989 XFM, for believing in the Antigonish Skatepark from the beginning and continuing to support what we're building here.

We appreciate you! 🤘🛹📻

Tyler Harris wanted to get outside more. He wanted purpose. He wanted to exercise. And he wanted a crew to hang out with.

So he did it all in one strike and got himself a skateboard at Next Level Skateboard Shop. 🛹

Tyler went with a Santa Cruz Skateboards Screaming Hand board, Bullet Trucks, Independent Trucks Genuine Parts Bearings and Hardware, and MOB GRIP Tape — with his one blue stripe added to make the setup personal.

And for wheels, he picked up the OJ wheels x Creature Skateboards Bloodsucker wheels, 54mm, 95a. 🩸

This is what skateboarding is all about. Find a reason to get outside. Get some exercise. Meet people. Put in the work. Keep showing up.

And Tyler has absolutely been putting in the work at the Antigonish Skatepark and in the street. We've been watching him progress on his board, and it's awesome to see.

Nice work, Tyler! Keep pushing! 🤘🛹

OJ wheels X Creature Skateboards Curbsuckers Bloodsuckers 54mm 95a
Red + FREE FANGS INCLUDED

The OJ Wheels X Creature Curbsuckers Bloodsuckers feature are an absolute fan favorite with a juicy red colourway!

These wheels feature a 95a high performance urethane which offers a more forgiving durometer for rough terrain with easy, consistent power slides and bark you normally get with a harder urethane. In addition, novelty vampire teeth are included!
