BUILD A DIY SPOT

BUY SUPPLIES, EQUIPMENT, AND TOOLS REAL SKATERS USE

From patching crusty cracks to pouring new ledges, this is the stuff skaters use when they’re not waiting on the city to build a park. Stock up on bondo, concrete mix, gulf wax and more so you can fix spots, build new ones, and keep the session alive on your own terms.

SAKRETE CONCRETE MIX
(60lbs bag)

Skater-preferred Sakrete Concrete Mix is ideal for DIY skate spots, delivering a smooth, durable finish rated to 4,000 PSI so your ledges, banks, and transition can actually take a beating.

Bondo Body Filler
(Quart)

This is the same OG auto body filler skaters have used for decades to fix street spots: it bonds to concrete and metal, cures fast, and sands smooth so your ledges and run-ups feel right.

GULF WAX
(1 lbs box)

Gulf Wax is the classic grocery-store block skaters use to make crusty ledges and curbs actually slide. A full pound of paraffin you can cut, stash, and share for DIY sessions.

Our Mission

To empower skaters to take control of their future— teaching them how to earn money in this non-traditional industry and keep doing what they love. We motivate skaters to create their own path, push boundaries, and stay true to the culture.

Skaters First

Skaters take care of skaters—on and off the board. We push each other to land tricks, pick each other up after slams, and look out for the crew. Skate Slop follows the same mindset by helping skaters find jobs, make money, and stay in the industry.

Persistence

Skateboarding is all about trial and error—falling, getting back up, and trying again until you land it. The same mindset applies to making a career in the skate industry. Success comes from hard work, persistence, and never backing down from a challenge.

Level Up

Stuck in a job you hate? It’s time to move on. Skate Slop helps skaters break free from dead-end work and start careers where they can grow, learn new skills, and stay connected to skateboarding. Build a future that keeps you motivated—on your terms.
