FACE BOOK PROMOTES "DOG FIGHTING"! (THE PHOTO'S THEY ALLOW ARE SICKNING)

Face Book has allowed some people to post and get away with some pretty crazy stuff! A site that promotes friendship and family networking draws young kids & young adult's mainly to find friends and other interests. While some youth's may participate in some forms of fighting like Boxing & Marshall Arts i would never want my kids to see violent dog fighting and dead dog's body's laying dead after a fight even in pictures! The images Face Book has allowed are very graphic and the persons responsible for creating this page  "Combat Pitbull & Staff Americainshould be held accountable for their actions. If Face Book can't monitor and respond to countless reports of the concern of violence, animal abuse and disturbing images from many of their valued subscribers maybe Face Book's Valued customers "IE* Advertisers" would like to know us the public learned about them "UF", "the university of phoenix"
and "Autoway" just to name a few on such a violent FB page.
please support our morals and values expected from a public & "family oriented" site like this and i am sure even business would not want to be associated with behavior of this magnitude!
Gulf Coast Skate Shop does not support dog fighting and we are proud supporters of the preservation of the APBT "American Pit Bull Terrier" breed and we are proud to support such great bully breed rescue services like "Rugaz Rescue" & "Pit Stop Bully's Rescue"!
Thanks you for your support.

Educate your self on Long-Board Skateboarding!

Longboard skateboards are used in many disciplines of skate boarding! Its easy to walk in to your local skate shop or surf shop and buy a complete longboard that's ready to go but are you getting whats right for you?
did you know that if your riding "down a hill" or on the "flat ground" at the beach their are different board suited to every type of riding. If your "Long distance" riding or sneaking in to your favorite "parking garage" do you know what board you need? Even if you have been skating for a long time or just a little while its impossible to have ridden every longboard on the market. The best bit of advise i can give you is to come it to our shop or contact us at Gulf Coast Skate Shop and another bit of valuable information is to check out silverfishlongboarding.com both the reviews and the forums can save you hundreds of dollars in buying the wrong set-up for your type of riding.
Gulf Coast Skate Shop has been in business for over 10 years and has some of the fastest riders in Forida riding for the shop. With over 20 years in experience skating and setting up boards let us help you with your next board purchase or board set-up!

Gulf Coast local and GCSS family member and team skater "Papa Dread" hit up a Dunedin sesh last week and we caught a few pics the share.


With style and grace you can see his aggressive surfing and skim boarding shines through to some really gnarly style of skating. At 37 years old and 4 kids that currently skate your never too old to give up such a great feeling and an awesome sport.
