    You guys rock. I can’t believe I can skate like this in only a couple of lessons. Thanks!

    My wife and I wanted to learn how to skateboard for a while, but at 26 thought it might be too late. We contacted the Uptown Skate School and it was the best decision we could have made. Jen gave us a couple of lessons and now we’re hooked! I guess it’s never too late to learn

    Thank you, Joe and David!! The boys raved about our trip last Thursday for the rest of their visit. They couldn’t believe they skated Brooklyn Banks, just like in the pro videos. Tris took them all down to Soho the next day, and they hit every shop. When I saw them at dinner, they were all wearing new shirts (mostly Volcom). I know it’s not cool to say they were very cute, but….

    Now, having been there once, I feel comfortable enough to go again with my kids. I doubt I would have gone on our own. This will really expand our options, when Tris says he’s bored with our local park (New Rochelle).

    Thank you again -
