So what's up with the odd name, Sk8 Monkey? (BTW, "Sk8" is shorthand for "skate.")  More than FOUR years ago, in mid-2008, we started vending at figure skating competitions, selling stuffed animals to be thrown onto the ice after the competitors' programs.  We gradually expanded our business to include the ZÜCA product line, selling at Irish Dance competitions and adding numerous other product lines to our sales repertoire: ChloeNoel skatewear, Jerry's accessory line (such as blade guards), Mondor tights, etc...so even though we don't do just skate events anymore, we still like our catchy little name - so we're keeping it!  Welcome to our site!
