Ground Floor Skateboards Review

Eric literally gave me the laces off his own shoes when mine broke and didn't have a replacement. He was super friendly and welcoming. I would recommend for any gear you need.

Always awesome stopping in to shop. Excellent staff. Friendly and hospitable. MUST STOP if Downtown Rockford.

Great service, very helpful and friendly. Highly recommend! We will be back.

Very friendly, excellent service. Reasonable prices. Will go back again.

A quality shop- everything you could ask for! Selection, one on one attention- they have it all! The Rockford community is very fortunate to have this store.

Always a great help, owner knows his stuff inside and out, they're not there to sell you anything other than what you need to keep having fun skating, that's what makes them great

Super helpful, fantastic service, love supporting the local shops, and was really fun supporting them on the 1 year anniversary of them opening. Definitely will be going back.

Went there today and the place is very friendly & helpful, looking forward to stop by there more often

It is an excellent shop and carries lots of good skateboarding focused companies.

The owners are super helpful and friendly. They have plenty of options.

Great shop he gives you 1 on 1 service and I love to support a local shop.

Super helpful, knowledgeable, and nice people. They just want everyone to love skating as much as they do. Helped my little brother customize is skateboard for Christmas, and they got him stoked to start his journey.

I was in desperate need of bushings since mine were shot. Called Ground floor to schedule an appointment. Ben was able to assist me within minutes of the call. He also recommended some New Balance shoes, since I disclosed how I went through 2 pairs of shoes in one month. Highly recommend Groundfloor for any skateboard needs as well as these sweet shoes. So far they are very durable especially around the outer edge of the feet which is important for flip tricks. Big shout out to Ben for helping me in a pinch! My heart goes out to the Groundfloor family for everything you've been through recently

Skater owned and operated with unique quality products tested by the owner himself. If you're a skateboarder from the stateline get down here and grab some wood there bub.

They treated my daughter like a queen great staff helped her pick out the best board for her!!!!

Hands down best skateshop I've ever visited. The most welcoming shop for everyone of all skill levels. They have a diverse selection of decks, trucks, and wheels. A lot of the decks are small production, local companies with great quality. I bought a whole setup for a very fair price and they offer their groundfloor grip tape if you want it. The staff is super knowledgeable and helpful as well. They don't make you feel dumb for not knowing something. Forgot to ask his name, but the super chill dude working even gave me some of his old deck brand stickers. Overall I highly recommend them for anyone as they are the best around.

I love supporting local buissnesses and this place has a wide selection of boards at a great price ranging 45 to 55 $ and shop and an adorable dog. Highly recommend!

Everything you need to get your skateboarding game off the ground floor! A simple shop, with all the necessities. And you couldn't ask for better owners. People who genuinely care about Rockford, and it's people!

A small locally owned skateboard shop run by people who really just want to enjoy skateboarding. This is really what a skate shop should be about. Good deals on quality products without the corporate B.S.

Fantastic shop, great vibes. Shop local instead of going to big shops for your skating needs, the relationships built here will far outweigh any thing that those big shops can offer

Great group of guys. Great service. And knowledge. From a fatger buying his son his 1st board. It was beyond great supporting. Buying from tyem. Highly recommend. And 100x better thaan zumies. No pressure to buy. Which i liked alot

Hands down the best skate shop I've been too. Couldn't ask for a better experience. Highly recommend checking this place out and grabbing some merch. Support local businesses!

If you're in the greater Rockford area and skate or are just getting into it (or back into it after years out of the game) this is without a doubt the place to go. Can't say enough good things about the experience I had here and the amazing customer service.

Have been here a few times with my son. Always very helpful and super knowledgeable. Met Eric, the owner yesterday. Awesome guy. He talked shop with my 13 year old son like they were equals. He was super honest and will tell you what brands he likes best and why. And he knows where all of his products are made and can tell you about the company, etc which I thought was interesting. His two dogs were 'helping' at the shop that day and were super friendly too!

Dopest shop I've ever been to. Great, well thought out selection, awesome and friendly service, and a huge heart for the community they serve. You've got to visit/grab a shirt if you're going through Rockford.

Honestly, I love that rockford still has a skate shop like groundfloor kicking around. Not only does it have great choices of decks, trucks, bearings, wheels and griptape. It supports local artists as well! It does this through selling their designs on decks and grip tape from what I saw in the shop. I also love how friendly the whole staff is and the skate community around rockford. Keep on kicking groundfloor! <3 (picture of skate shoes and complete from groundfloor)

This is such a great place! The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable!

1st time here. Very helpful. Great selection. Decks u won't find anywhere else. We'll spend more $ here for sure

Amazing service and great selection. Would recommend! !

If you're a skater (old or new) this is the place. Solid selection of decks from pros and upcoming suppliers. They also carry clothing and gear. If they don't have it they may get it for you (just ask Eric and he'll be happy to help).

Buy local!

i ve only been here once but it was really nice. the worker was really chill and cool. the only problem is it was a bit confusing to find because you have to go into this room and then down some stairs but once i found it they had everything i needed

Wanted to get a new custom board setup to get back into skating again. The owner was very knowledgeable and friendly. He was able to make good recommendations on trucks and wheels. I will definitely be coming back whenever I need anything else.

Great local business. The owners are very warm and helpful. I shop for my grandson and they help to make each purchase as simple or custom as I need.

Had a great time designing a skateboard for my son. Everyone in there were a great help. Thank you boys for your help!

I'm so happy Rockford has such a cool skate shop! Staff is amazing + super helpful!
