My name is Kris Markham and I am the founder/ owner of Sneaky’s Boardstore.

Born in New Zealand, I moved to the Gold Coast when in my early teens and loved the skate, surf and bmx culture.

I spent 15 years working in heavy industry after leaving school, spending large amounts of time away from home ( and unable to do any of the above! ). I stopped working away in 2025 and finally picked up a skateboard for the first time in close to 17 years. I was quite upset and disappointed to find that there were no true skateboard focused stores in Bunbury, Western Australia - Which got me thinking well, maybe it’s time to take a risk and try something that I am truly passionate about.
