Located in Historic Downtown Upland, the proprietor / operator is Dale, a good dude who supports community, youth skating, etc. I dropped by today for Badlands Boardshop t-shirts. Christmas stock arriving daily! Check it out.

Sure it’s a cool shop but it said they were doing a sale on the Pokémon Santa Cruz boards on the site but the store wasn’t even open when I went at 11 when it says they open so I missed the dropped at a store that may have actually had it-_-

Stopped by here last week, the shop and service were great. The clothes selection was a little small but who I believe was the owner greeted me and said they’d be getting more clothes in a few days. The service was excellent and the shop was greatly kept. I will definitely be returning!

Very nice staff, so helpful and very welcoming. I don't know who I talked to but he might have been the owner. He was a humble dude and very knowledgeable. I appreciate his time and the information he shared with me.

Badlands is a very great place to build a skateboard. Great assistance from the employees and especially the owner. They can assist you with the right board information you need. Reasonably priced items too.

Solid skate shop first time paying a visit. I believe his name was Dale who assisted me on buying wheels and bearings plus free installation for my convenience. Purchase 54 mm bones and Bones big ball bearings. Even asked about bushings but he told me I didn't need him because they were just fine. This skateshop cares about skaters support your local skate shop.

Over the Christmas season, I had been talking to my wife about wanting to try and mess around on a skateboard a bit. She took my ramblings seriously (thankfully) and went down to Badlands to build a skateboard for me. After I opened my brand new board on Christmas, she relayed the purchasing experience to me. Dale, the owner, walked her through the build process step-by-step, not trying to upsale her or give her something cheap. What I got was a great build that I love. Later, I went down to the shop myself and purchased a helmet and had a positive experience in the shop. Dale was incredibly friendly and the shop has a very comfortable vibe to it. While I have no inclination that I'm going to be on the cover of Thrasher any time soon, I know that if I need anything to continue my fun foray into skateboarding, I have an awesome place to go with an incredibly friendly, honest, and knowledgeable owner.

Great little hole in the wall local skate shop, with pretty much anything you'd need in there. They carry old school shaped boards from time to time and have the extra wide 11 inch grip tape to match. Will definitely be keeping these guys in mind when I need a new deck or hardware.

Lets just say wow. I am very lucky to have found this shop. They really know their stuff and are super professional. Walked in with no knowledge but did not hesitate to help me out and answered all my questions (even the d*** questions). No gimmicks and down to earth. Would not go to another skate shop besides this one. Will definitely be coming back
