Ordered a board on Sunday through their website, got it on Tuesday. It was very carefully packaged and customer service was great.

Amazing service received from Adam, I was having difficulty choosing the right cruiser and Adam gave me some solid honest advice. In the end I chose the Landyachtz dinghy and oh my what a fun board, it's so rad, even an old git like me can have a ton of fun on this thing it's amazing! When I need a replacement I'll definitely be using Vandem again, thanks guys!

I don't normally do reviews unless I feel absolutely Satisfied, but these guys deserve it ! I went down once had a look around and a chat, then went back down to then place a order for some Caguama's and buy some other bits, cant help but feel satisfied with Adam's knowledge with his years of experience in skating to explain to a novice the skating world. With little knowledge I had he explained all the difference in wheels I could ever need !! Had a phone call to let me know when they were in and it is always good to have the option to have them delivered all in the price, but as of being local i just picked them up. Wheels are now fitted and cant wait to get out and ride them !! can not fault in the slightest will defiantly be back down to buy bits in the future. A+

Went in thinking I knew what I wanted (beginner who wanted to lead to film while riding) spoke to Adam (top lad!) who gave me some advice and helped me choose a board. Not only did I spend less than I was prepared to but had a great experience and can safely say I'll be back again soon!

Great advice from the team at Vandem. I've ended up with the perfect Lush pintail for land boarding. Having so much fun on it as an addition to my normal SUP boarding. Great work guys. Looking forward to visiting when I next go to Bristol. Barry

I’ve already left a few reviews on vandem’s site, but I thought it was time for another. So I just watched Brightpearl’s video where Rich was interviewed (if you’re reading this review, I strongly recommend you watch it), and it put into perspective what vandem does for the UK long boarding community. When you buy from vandem, you aren’t just buying a product, you are investing money into a community of people that all love to skate. Not only that, their delivery and customer service is spot on. They got me into skating, and now it’s my passion. Thank you Vandem!

A BIG THANK YOU to Adam who gave me the confidence to finally purchase my first longboard after months and months of thinking about it and being confused about which type to buy. He was so helpful that in fact I picked up two - one for my partner as well! Shipping to Europe was super quick - it arrived in just three working days - for which I'm also grateful to Adam for packing up and despatching my order so promptly.
Customer service at this store is truly fantastic and a gem. Thank you again!

So friendly and welcoming! The best customer service I've ever experienced. Amazing little shop. Would 100% recommend to anyone new or big in the longboarding game!
- Daisy-Rose Edwards, July 18, 2017
I emailed the shop and used the online chat to discuss which longboard to buy as a beginner. The service and advice given was exceptional and I really look forward to using the shop again the future!

It's rare nowadays to get such amazing customer service but Vandem knock it out of the park every time. The staff are extremely knowledgeable, passionate, friendly and always happy to help. I'd say its the best service I've had from a shop ever actually!

These guys are sick, I bought a board from them and got it within a working day but that is shadowed by the customer service they gave before and after purchase.
