I wrote a review so long ago, but these guys did deserve something new... This is a real surf shop…read morewith guys who actually surf that work there. The owner Jeff is a super kind guy who is knowledgeable about surfboards, gear and surf culture. Brian, the manager is top-notch! Super knowledgeable, helpful, surfs himself and understands the boards and gear that he sells. He might not tell you this, but he's a top notch shaper himself although he doesn't talk much about it. This is a local store that deserves support. They've got killer stock of epic surfboards and clothing. It's the kind of place you can go in, have a drink or a coffee, talk story and look at some clips and some of their old boards they have on the wall. Definitely deserves some hype and some credit -- they've been around for a long time and in this economy it's important to support these guys. I've bought many surfboards here over the years and will continue to do so. Ridershack and ET Surf are the two core shops in Los Angeles that I go to.

I noticed this spot when it popped up back in the day (prob round 2013/15 or something.. but neways…read moreit was back in the day). During that time, I wasn't curious enough to walk through the doors; I just chalked it up as another brand-new nice-ass spot to ignore as I walked by after hittin' at the beach all day (doing street shows, the best one on da beach alongside Uba-Uba, Mr Animation, & Calipso Tumblers, of course [Big ups to Harry Perry & Hercule's]. Anyways, I walked in a few days ago bc it was one of the only things I recognized. After donating all my decks and snapping the only one I kept in half, I wasn't trying to buy another one - so I'm very grateful I was able to, and did. Skated everyday since three days ago, and I feel the most genuine to myself I have in a while for doing so (exponentially affecting productivity). Thank you Nick!

I really enjoyed my visit to Arbor in Venice. There was a sale of shirts, sweatshirts and hoodies…read morefrom the former San Diego store with such a nice selection of designs and sizes. The store is remarkable and serves the Board community well. The thing about Arbor over other sporting goods type stores is that the products designed and materials used follow strict sourcing requirements to reduce the impact to earth. I got my first Arbor shirt at REI over 20 years ago and have been an avid follower of their products. I ended up buying several sweatshirts and hoodies which were embroidered or printed in very cool fashion. All the items I purchased were 50 percent off and are of great quality. The cashier and main employee was really nice, as we had nice conversations about our dogs and how she got into boarding. With such nice savings, I'll be back for value priced summer clothing in the next few months.

I don't do many reviews but when I do, I prefer dos xx, whoops, wrong review…read more Not only do I highly recommend this incredibly great surf shop, but I want to say you should only go to Jack's. They are the best in breed when it comes to surfing stores and I can't say eight great things about them. Not only do they carry just about everything you could ever need for your surf experiences, but they donut was class and style. Their inventory is massive and if you can't find what you're looking for here, then you'll never find it anywhere else. You can always tell more about an establishment, doesn't even have to be a surfing shop but any place, hotel, restaurant, airline or where ever it may be by the people that work there. Could even be a Macys or Nordstroms, theatre's or wherever. What tell you the most about a place by the folk that work there. At his location every employee there had a great attitude and knowledge of all surf. Product knowledge that you hadn't even thought of or crossed your mind before. These guys and the teams there are all first rate and world class humans in top of that. I want to especially single out the manager I met today, Zackariah. You couldn't ask for a better guy to be minding the store and Jack's is darn lucky to have him. Zackariah is a high quality work class human and Jacks is darn lucky to have have him. I've never been so impressed by a fellow running a gorgeous store like this or anywhere else. No, I'm not his mother or father or have any relation to him. I'll just a 68 year old guy who was so impressed by Zackariah, what a great biblical name too, that I have to shout this out to all of you potential and probably many customers already established customers. I will never go anywhere else to get gear for my 35 year old son who loves and surfs down in Encinitas, or my 30 year old daughter who's local here to the Santa Monica Bay who does a little surfing too. Zackariah, your employers are so lucky to have a world class guy working for them. I hope your owners read this reach out to give you a call or show some way of telling you you're doing a great job, because you are and your team shows nothing but respect for your leadership. Thank you for making my shopping experience today a memorable one and I look forward to coming back and hopefully it will be on a day you're managing and are there. In the mean time, you're a rockstar and Jack's is so lucky to have you. I hope you hear from them To let you know and possibly even show you their appreciation of you. You deserve it!!! Rock on!!

Wife and I decided to do something outdoors on the first full day of summer this year. Earlier in…read morethe week we made reservations to rent some Kayaks from Pro Sup Shop. It was super easy to do online, so on Saturday morning, all we had to do was get there. We arrived in MDR 15 to 20 minutes before our appointment. Lot 10, which is public pay lot, was literally right next to the shop, so that was super convenient! Check in was super easy and every point of contact we had with staff was excellent. You can tell they know their business and they are happy to give pointers or help out with whatever you need. We're thinking about bringing our nephew next time we come back. and we will definitely be back. Great business!

Experience: We made a reservation a week before online since we went on a Sunday, but I don't think you have to on a weekday. We checked in at the table and then they gave us paddles (and offered optional life jackets) and directed us to the beach. We kayaked for an hour and a half, which was the perfect amount of time!

Was not expecting this. I think I found my new favorite coffee spot on the west side (or even maybe…read morein all of LA?)! Full stop: the coffee was actually my favorite part of the cafe. That almost never happens, at least for me. I had an iced oat latte with an extra shot so really got to taste their espresso and it was perfect - not too acidic and just the right amount of sweetness. Next, they have an outdoor space that's super dog friendly. YAY! Staff is super down to earth and personable. I ended up buying the banana bread and it was delicious. Rich, moist, and a generous size for a single slice. (Can be split between /for two!) I also liked the crowd. Seemed like a good mix of everything from young professionals, to surfers, to the corporate crowd looking to decompress.
