Just a portion of Grindpoint's great skateboarding selection

The G Train shutdown is a great opportunity to liven up your commute. Instead of walking or taking a shuttle, why not make your commute a little more fun by skateboarding? Grindpoint, a new skateboard shop on Nassau Avenue, has everything you need to get started from boards and safety equipment to clothing and accessories. Want a really special board? Grindpoint can build you one custom. Busted your favorite skateboard? Owner Simon Gabrys, a lifelong Greenpoint resident, can also help you with maintenance and does repairs.

If you’re just getting started, here are some of Grindpoint‘s options to inspire you:

1. Longboards
Longer than a typical skateboard, longboards are great for riding around town. They’re also fun if you’re interested in racing, and use similar skills found in surfing or snowboarding.

2. Cruisers
Cruisers are a common longboard shape that includes a kick-tail, higher trucks and softer wheels and a more cushioned ride, making turns easier and maneuvering more simple.

3. Shortboards
Small, easy to carry skateboards, designed to do tricks and jumps. Great for skateparks and street skating.
