    Stopped in on a busy Saturday after not being able to reach anybody by phone. There was only one guy working and he was doing 10 things at once (a multitasking man!), checking people in for bike rentals, accepting bike returns and disinfecting the bikes for the new renters, basically running round like crazy. I now understood why the telephone doesn't get answered, no vm either but ah, what evs, it all l worked out! I waited for about 5 minutes and when it was my turn to step up to the counter I asked about pricing and was told $10 an hour for a one gear beach cruiser. Perfecto! That's just what I was lookin for! I also rented a basket for an additional $3 (it was VERY small), I wanted to put my little pooch in there but she didn't really fit, not comfortably anyway. Bummer! I kept the basket anyway, signed all the documents (details: they ask for a credit or debit card, address, and driver's license, all entered into an iPad, you have to sign some paper documents and they place $150 "hold" on your card until you return the bike. At that time you can either pay cash or charge it to the card). I chose a cruiser that was sitting on the floor, he disinfected it and off I went! I was able to ride the entire strand up to Santa Monica and stop at a store for a little shopping all in one hour. I rode back, Angel checked my bike in, I paid the $13 cash and bam! Dunzo! Angel was helpful, super friendly and efficient checking in and checking out the bikes. Other than that the store has some random beach stuff (see photos) as well as fun things to buy for your bike. Great experience over all, I'll definitely rent again from them in the future.

    That's where it's at...

    Love my used new bike as much as the tender care we got from this spot. Alex was attentive to our needs, complaints and stories... for that, thank you and we love our bikes! My bike is Hinana and her parents are next door!

    Rented a 7-speed bicycle with a child seat. It was very well-maintained. The brakes and gear shift both worked very well

    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!!
