Halfpiped is an online skate shop run from a flat in Woodlands, on Woodlands Drive 50, by one person. The shop has no rent and no staff, and the website says that is how it keeps prices lower. Pickup is by appointment, and orders can be placed online or by WhatsApp.
The shop sells complete skateboards, decks, trucks and wheels, mostly from skate brands that the big local shops do not carry. The owner also offers a way to build a board in 3D: you pick the parts and see the board before ordering, and the parts can be assembled for you. Each order is packed and sent by the owner, and the shop shares discount codes and new stock on its social feeds.
Customers say the transactions are quick and the boards are good quality. One buyer says the seller was easy to talk to and understanding, and another says the seller explained how the small mini skateboard keychain worked. Reviews also mention freebies with orders, and a few mention skate lessons. The shop reports over 500 reviews across Carousell, Shopee and Google Maps. Our pick in Woodlands for a custom board from a skater who knows the gear.
