The best in the biz. Quick response time for answering questions and getting the board I wanted. Fast shipping and great deal all around. Don't hesitate to shop here for your bodyboarding or other water sports equipment. Thank you to the ebodyboarding crew!

These guys really rock! Stopped there earlier this month cause I needed an upgrade, a board I could progress into. They found the perfect board for me and I am short and on the heavier side so I am glad I could finally find a board that works for me!!!! I tried it for the first time today and man, it makes a HUGE difference, I get into any and every wave, and I gained in speed too!!! I highly recommend these guys if you are into serious bodyboarding and want some legit advice!

TRIBE board 38" squaw, flex core, surlyn. Just $220 for board & bicep leash (w/tax).

Been watching the guys & waves at the wedge for a while. Not the type of girl to sit on the sidelines. Braved some waves around 15th with swim fins and decided I needed to just get out there and go. (Quite intimidating when you're less than 5ft and the waves are 3-4+). After much researching I decided Ebodyboarding.com was the place to go. I'm an in person shopper and was very happy to discover that this place has a shop in beautiful San Clemente, not too far from me. Truly amazing people, made me feel so welcome and that's hard to come by, especially when it's genuine. Talked to 4 staff (including the owners) and all were so friendly :) They are well stocked here and had my size (unlike six six .., cough). Many options for shapes and colors depending on your size. Good amount of leash colors which they install for you and "da fins", quite a variety to pick from. Giana (You're so awesome! Hope I got your name right) helped size me and went over what the best options were. Very knowledgable and happily shared it all with me. She made sure I could hold the larger size too. Came down to 2 size choices and Vicki helped us make the decision based on multiple factors. They really make sure the board is a good fit for you! Tried my new baby out and got a feel for how to take on waves head on (jumping over, pressing down and a duck dive). My timing needs practice, but got 1 actual wave in, a 4 footer! Thank you so much for getting me on my wayyyve ;) You guys are Reale swell!

Been bodyboarding since 1994 and always take care of my gear after use ... be it body boarding, cycling, or snowboarding. I've had the Viper V7 fins forever and they are still in excellent condition, but who doesn't love new gear right? Decided on MS Viper Swimfins, but bought them originally on Amazon. They came and were a bit snug so decided to pay their shop a visit in San Clemente to exchange for a larger size. The minute I walked in I was greeted with some amazing people - genuinely friendly and helpful. The girl that greeted me walked me into the warehouse and went over the color options in my size. She told me to try them on to make sure I had proper fitment. It's a bodyboarders candy store so I decided to get a Viper Fins hoodie while I was there. FYI they are licensed to print Viper Fins on any garment and they have a variety to select from. Former pro bodyboarders Jay and Vickie Reale are hands on owners. Jay did my exchange and he made it so easy ... I didn't even have to sign anything! We had a nice chat and I felt like I'd known him for years .... before you know it Vickie was done printing my hoodie. I normally surf Newport 40th St, but since I was already in San Clemente I asked what the local spot was ... they sent me to T Street and I had a good time even though it was small 1-2 FT. I'll be buying directly from their web site moving forward because Team Reale is the realist! Very rare especially these days. Don't hesitate in supporting ebodyboarders.com!

The store itself is so well organized, clean and inspirational. But what truly makes Laguna Hills…read morethe best REI I've ever been to is the staff. In today's world, excellence is not common. Emma, who was at the register, personifies attention to detail, genuine care and true excellence. In small talk, my husband explained to her that I have been having health issues with forever plastics in my clothing. That's why we were there to buy Merino wool. Immediately, she looked at all o f the tags from the clothing we assumed was pure wool, and found out two of the 3 pieces actually had over 40% polyester. She went even further and went back to the clothing area with us and found 2 pieces that were 100% wool. Emma also has a great personality, sense of humor. Before we left, we asked to speak to her manager since we were so impressed. When Lisa came out to talk with us, we were blown away. She, too, has that same level of care and excellence. We are definitely fans of REI, and will always be loyal to the Laguna Hills location!

This REI is much bigger inside than expected from the outside. Everything is laid out nicely with…read moreplenty of room to see everything rather than cramped aisles and displays. Located right off the 5 and El Toro in the Trader Joe's shopping center, there is plenty of parking with a bakery just across the parking lot, and a great Mexican restaurant next door. They have lots of high end backpacking supplies, tents, shoes, clothing etc.. and they also have more budget friendly options. Not crazy about their pushing the "membership" but it's not a requirement so you can shop away without it... I think it does save you money over a few purchases. Lots of gifts to be had here.. I was surprised how many cool little things they had that made great gifts and are not camping specific.

THANK YOU SO MUCH and BIG SHOUTOUT TO JEN IN THE RUNNING SHOE DEPARTMENT SHE IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING…read moreGIVE HER A RAISE AND EXTRA VACATION DAYS! I recently went to snails pace, but Jen WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I was just exploring different options and she was able to give my gf and I some pointers. Without any equipment or fancy machines she grabbed our shoes and was able to take a look at how we walked. She said I was normal, but my girlfriend's feet were supinated looking at the bottom of the shoe. WE WERE ABSOLUTELY AMAZED. I tried 5 different pairs but she was able to give tips on running a marathon as well! My pair of Saucony Guide 18 were only $98 with the discount we get. I got some Feeture socks as well and it was very comfy on my run. Thank you so much!

The store is super…read moreclean, well organized, and has a great selection for everything from camping to everyday outdoor gear. We actually prefer this one over the Long Beach location. The only downside (and the reason for 4 stars instead of 5) is that no one mentioned the Basementeer membership discount to us during our first visit--even while we were checking out. We ended up discovering it ourselves later and signed up online, and it's such a great deal that we definitely would've used it on that first purchase. Overall though, still a fantastic store with a lot to offer--we'll definitely keep coming back!

I bought a swimsuit two days ago at this store. Because they had big sale, so it was busy. I didn't…read moretry it on. But when I got home to try it. It is kind of big. I took it back to exchange it. But the casher told me me it is final sale. He won't let me exchange, even it has all oringal tags on, and the receipt. He is just very mean, kept saying it is the policy... I read their policy, it says I can return or exchange in 30days, which it is common for all the bussiness I think. But this casher just won't me exchange. The swimsuit is not clearance, not the red tag item. I just can't understand why I couldn't exchange to the right size!!! I would never go there again! Just remind all of you, u buy stuff there, u can't return or exchange. How crazy!.

I really love this place, but I've found that it can be very hit or miss since it's an outlet. When…read morethere's a good sale, the deals to be had are AMAZING. I got a 3/2 fullsuit for like 50 bucks. I didn't even need another one at the time, but how you gonna say no to that? I also love buying booties here, if you come at a time when they have your size the deals are phenomenal, I usually pay $60+ for booties full price but they'll have them here for 15 bucks sometimes but they go fast. The staff here is also super helpful, if you're new to wetsuits and need help with wetsuit sizing or anywhere else they're always happy to help. The fitting rooms are large and spacious as well, which if you've ever tried on a wetsuit before you know that you want a lot of space to move around. Besides wetsuits and surf gear they have both men and women's apparel along with accessories such as watches, hats, bags, etc. The store is well maintained and well kept, and parking is easy right behind the store. The only downside is that their stock is always constantly changing, so you never really know if they'll have your size of what you want. I've found great deals on apparel and misc accessories, but other times I'll come by and there's no sales and the prices aren't too different from what you'd find at a regular non outlet store or they won't have my size in anything I want. If you're passing through the area, it's definitely worth it to stop by to see what they have. If they don't, come back another time because they'll probably have new inventory.

New shoes help prevent injuries, so I like to make it easy to keep exercising. Will was very helpful! I asked him to look over the shoes I decided were possibilities, and he suggested a completely different pair. I didn't feel "upsold" because the price difference was only about $10, but once I tried on the shoes, I understood what he was talking about. Immediately, I said, "these are mine!". I have a large foot, so they only had one pair, but Will let me know there was another pair in the Long Beach store. I headed out to the LB store the next day and snagged a second pair. At the same time, my friend headed upstairs to the Men's section because she, too, has a large foot. The women's selection gets smaller and smaller when the shoe size increases. She was greeted by a female sales person who helped her find two pairs of shoes and a windbreaker-type jacket. My friend is not a Nike member, so she filled out the online form and received a 15% discount on her items. I responded to a Nike request for feedback, and I described the San Clemente store as "homey." We received great help from very friendly sales persons. As a bonus, I saw a drinking bowl for dogs. I love dogs, so I saw this as a very nice touch.
