Deal is one of the newer retail skate shops in
Arizona. However, they've been around a lot longer
than you may think.>>>> |
The
recent growth of skateboarding in Arizona over the
past few years has resulted in the completion of many
skateboard facilities, as well as a boom in the amount
of retailers who specialize in the skateboarding biz.
A lot of shops have come and gone, but over the past
six years, Big Deal has remained a part of Arizona
skateboarding.
In
1995, Joe Dunnigan and Mike Snyder, with the assistance
of a few others, launched Big Deal as web-based provider
of skateboarding and snowboarding goods. Because a
lot of the distributors would not sell to an internet-only
retailer, Dunnigan and Snyder, along with two additional
partners, Trent and Ed Cox, opened Phoenix's well-established
Cowtown Skateboards in 1997
