Back in the day, an authorized dealer sticker in the shop window meant something. It meant that place was plugged into the real skate scene, carrying the good stuff, and backing the brands skaters actually cared about.

This CalStreets Legit Authorized Dealer 3-inch vinyl sticker brings that energy back with wild old-school skate-shop attitude.

Inspired by the era when CalStreets was distributing legends like Alva, Powell, Santa Cruz, Blockhead, and Zorlac, this sticker celebrates Canada’s second major skate distributor and the shops that helped build the scene. Loud, weird, colourful, and totally shop-wall worthy, this is the kind of sticker that feels like it came straight out of a counter display from the golden age of skateboarding.

The CalStreets Legit Authorized Dealer 3-inch vinyl sticker is a tribute to the days when skate shops were more than stores.

They were scene headquarters. If you saw an authorized dealer sticker in the window, you knew that shop was connected, stocked, and serious about skateboarding.

This design brings back that classic distributor-sticker feeling from the early CalStreets era, when Canada’s skate scene was exploding and CalStreets helped move legendary brands like Alva, Powell, Santa Cruz, Blockhead, Zorlac, and more into the hands of real skaters. This sticker is not trying to be clean, corporate, or polite. It is loud, gnarly, and full of that old skate counter energy.

The artwork is packed with bones, skulls, mutant colour, surf shapes, skate shapes, and wild hand-drawn chaos. Right in the middle is the skeletal pterodactyl idea, moving from surf to skate, a perfect symbol of how skateboarding evolved out of surf culture and then became its own beast entirely. It feels prehistoric, punk, and totally CalStreets.

It is a small piece of CalStreets history, made for skaters who know that the best stickers always come with a story.

CalStreets – Since 1978

Born in the golden era of urethane and rebellion, CalStreets Skate Shop opened its doors in 1978, carving its way into Canadian skate history from the heart of Vancouver. More than just a shop, CalStreets became the west coast’s skateboarding nucleus—a place where riders, rebels, and innovators found their tribe.

Back in the day, we weren’t just slinging boards—we were official Canadian distributors for the biggest names in skate history: Powell-Peralta, Sims, Santa Cruz, Alva, Dogtown, and Brand-X. If it was iconic, we had it first.

At the center of it all is Rick Tetz, CalStreets’ founder and lifelong skater. Rick rode for Hobie and Sims, earned 3rd place at the Oasis World Freestyle Championships, and took 1st in Canada in 1980 for Freestyle Skateboarding.

Rick also managed Skateboard World Skatepark in Burnaby, one of Canada’s original skateparks that helped define the country’s skate culture. Rick’s legacy isn’t just carved into the pavement—it’s built into the DNA of the shop itself.

From the early days of fiberglass decks and backyard ramps to today’s resurgence of reissues, surfskates, and fingerboarding, we’ve always stayed ahead of the curve.

And if you ever dropped by our shop in the heyday, you probably played a few games on our original Black Knight pinball machine—a staple of the shop that’s eaten more quarters than any snack bar ever could. It's still here at CalStreets HQ, and yes, it still works.

We don’t just sell gear—we live and breathe skateboarding. From freestyle pioneers to street soldiers, bowl carvers to vert chargers, CalStreets has always been more than a shop—it’s been a launchpad for legends. Our team riders and local scene helped shape Vancouver’s skate identity with a DIY spirit that still fuels every session today.

Today, CalStreets lives on through our brick-and-mortar location and online under the BoarderLabs banner—serving collectors, skaters, and culture junkies who know that the real ones never left. Skater-owned. CalStreets – Holding it down since 1978.
