Founded in 2008 by Brian Buck, Plank Eye is a skate shop founded by skaters, run by skaters, and for skaters. We offer a wide variety of products from some of the best brands on the planet. Skating is in our blood and our goal is to support the local skate scene and introduce new people into the skate community. We provide services such as assembling custom built complete boards, sizing out boards and equipment to meet your personal needs, and even offering skateboarding lessons to beginners and kids at Bayne Skatepark located only a block away from our storefront! The name Plank Eye originates from the Bible, Matthews 7:3-5, because we believe that skateboarding is an avenue for individuals to express their talent and individual creativity without judgement. No matter the skill level, in skateboarding, everyone is welcome!
“Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.”
