Case Study: SkateXS (youth skateboard brand) achieves e-commerce growth and customer trust with Shopify

SkateXS - Customer Case Study

SkateXS is a family-founded skateboard company in Carlsbad, CA created after the founders couldn’t find high-quality, properly sized skateboards for young kids. Faced with a market of flimsy toy boards or oversized teen decks, they set out to build smaller, durable boards that give kids a safer, more authentic introduction to skating.

They partnered with an eco-friendly maker for bamboo decks, sourced top-name trucks, wheels and bearings, and assemble custom boards to order with color and personalization options. Running on Shopify with Yotpo reviews and ShippingEasy fulfillment, the brand has grown largely through organic search and word-of-mouth—amassing 500+ 5-star reviews and brand ambassadors—and reached full-time operation within 18 months.
