When I think of skateboarding and San Francisco I think of FTC: For The City. If you want to know why, here's a little history lesson. FTC was established in 1986 only selling a small collection of skate gear in the back of a ski and tennis shop. By 1994 they opened its own doors to a store on Haight-Ashbury street in SF. They began to evolve and grow towards the city street skating scene, and help put legendary skate spots Embarcadero aka EMB and Hubba Hideout on the map. Today the FTC family continues to grow making quality clothing and skateboard products. Even ESPN Action Sports did a story about them and their family values.
