Twenty-five years is as good as a century in small business, yet Active Ride Shop looks well in its prime as it celebrates its 25th anniversary. To observe the occasion, the California-based skateboarding institution tapped none other than Vans to create a special version of the classic Sk8-Hi silhouette.
