About Scam Skate
Imagine you went to work every day doing something rewarding that you were truly passionate about. Those jobs can be rare, so rather than searching for that elusive role you could create your own. That’s exactly what Portage la Prairie’s Gavin Barrett and Joel Baker did, opening Scam Skate on Graham Avenue in downtown Winnipeg. Their business didn’t start out in a typical way though, as they were only two grade 11 students who decided to start printing t-shirts. The custom designs became popular in their high school and they soon got their products onto the shelves in a local skate shop. These guys were onto something, and they didn’t stop there. Rolling up their sleeves as true entrepreneurs, they graduated and began to make custom skateboards, longboards and more apparel for their sport. In 2013, Scam Skate was born and has been growing ever since. Priding themselves on their craftsmanship and customer service, the guys ensure every board leaves the shop with very high standard. They design all the merchandise themselves and make each board by hand, often going above and beyond the typical industry standards. They tell us that the quality of the wood can make a real difference in a deck, so they ensure their supply is inspected and chosen carefully. The materials are precision cut and then pressed in machined forms for a perfect bond to cure properly, inside the forms to make for a better end product. Adhering to such quality standards is impressive since every business knows that time equals money. Their happy customers are what is truly important to them, and that will continue to bring great success for this Manitoba duo.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Every time I've gone to Scam Skate, I have had nothing but the best customer service. Very cool and friendly staff.
I do wish they had a larger selection of longboards. But the boards that they do offer are very premium and often cheaper than online.
Location is great because they're literally right next to a skate park.
Very recommended.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Without a doubt the best customer service and product knowledge base. We went to Scam Skate today to get a skateboard for my son for his birthday, his first skate board. I called ahead to see if they were open, and they were, until 6 pm. Joel said no worries, if you are a bit late, I will stay open for you. We drove all the way across the city and got there about 5:50. He spent time with us, helping my son get the best skateboard for him. He set it up for him and made sure everything was perfect. This is how customer service should be done. He was super nice, funny and out going and more than happy to help us out and stay after hours to make sure we got what we wanted and went away happy and satisfied with our purchase. We didn't get out of there until 6:20 and there was no urgency for him to get us out so he can close up. Amazing customer service, amazing customer experience, perfect product knowledge and a fantastic selection of boards and accessories to choose from. I more than highly recommend Joel and Scam Skate. This is the only place I would ever consider from here on in to get skateboards and accessories. He even has a print shop that can print s and designs for you at a price that can't be touched anywhere else. Thanks again Joel for everything. My son loves his new skateboard.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Best local skate shop in Winnipeg! Staff are super friendly and helpful and their brand of longboards are absolutely amazing, I’d say equal if not slightly better than a Santa Cruz or sector 9. Will definitely be coming back for all my future boards
