The shop has a signature wheel wall organized by durometer, a great selection of trucks, complete decks and will carry boards other brands as well, including Longboard Living and BOZ Boards.
Congratulations to Ryan and his team at Bustin Boards for achieving this milestone and setting the industry standard high.

Longboard Living x Andrei Calinescu

Longboard Living has had the opportunity to work with many great photographers while accomplishing a mission to "capture" this lifestyle. For the riders, everyday is a new experience as the route home is never the same and the strength of the push is constantly increasing. You are always in the moment and it is such a pleasure to have that moment captured. This past summer we worked with a budding photographer named Andrei Calinescu. It helps that Andrei is a longboarder himself and has an eye and a love for longboarding.

Upcoming projects will involve a photo shoot with all Longboard Living Team Riders.

The first set of footage has been shot in Toronto and is currently being edited. It gives viewers a glimpse of what it is like to ride through the cities neighborhoods and around major landmarks, as well as documentary style interview content.

As this project continues, we will focus on capturing more intense riding and technical moves to show the limitless potential of urban longboarding.
