Thank you Select Skate Shop

Love this shop -- everyone is always super friendly. I come in pretty frequently and the dudes that…read morework here have always helped me choose things/informed me on why their products are in the store. I don't think people realize that local skaters work here so they know what's up on the products they sell. Doesn't hurt that a lot of the guys that work there are hot ~~ I love shopping with some eye candy honey!!!

I have seen the strip mall literally evolve around surfhouse. Much respect to the owners and (developers?!?) for making sure this landmark and epic shop didn't get pushed out. Yesterday I called and a real person who knows what's what gave me the rundown on their longboard skateboard inventory. No way l was going to order online a China made knock off for this important purchase. Slid in to and found the perfect sled, USA made gravity longboard that I bought for my son as his Christmas gift. It is the same shape as his hand me down that is almost 25 years old that he cruises to class on every day. Love the Surfhouse. Here is to 50 more years!!!

After being on a hunt for 40 days and 20 nights. I decided to stop in here…read more In search for my sweet love of mine. The one the only.. It was decades later since 2 of my Ultra 2008 cd made of their minds up to crack into 3's on me. The pain & agony of watching them as the lay damaged, unfixable, and unplayable. My Ultra 2008 & Ultra Trance 2008. Two completely different cds & songs though with similar names. But both brought in 2008 at Walmart. The summer of 69' is when we used to watch the sunset fall and the shores of tides wash in. A peaceful ambient. I glared into the souls of both wreckless cd's. Thinking where and how will I ever be able to find these cds..? Time passes by, weeks turn into hard cold months. From cd shoppe to record store no sign. Lost without a trace, until one day a postage stamped Soundwaves came in the mail. Out of distress and wearyness. I jumped up and took a long drive. Upon arrival, Soundwaves sits in a blacked alley. The one and only street light flickers. As I approach the lonely building on the corner of here and there. I enter into the locked fixation of nebula stargaze. Every pattern and spiral, space besides me. Bright colors, blurred sounds, the distorted faces. Goblin Wang. A distance memory of what I didn't know to what I know now. The trance cds sit and wait. The cold case reopens and the case is closed. All the cds I was ever looking for were zapped into my euphoric state of mind. The anguished price blew me away like an atomic bomb my long lost pain turned into more pain when I knew I couldn't get the cds. Leaves turned brown & the hollow rot disappeared into unknown.

Stellar Service from Juan Rivera at Sun & Ski!…read more I brought in my GT mountain bike and my wife's COOP for routine service, and we ended up getting way more than just a tune-up -- we got a masterclass in customer care from Juan Rivera. Juan isn't just a bike tech; he's a total pro who knows his craft inside and out and knows how to connect with people. Talking with him is easy -- he explains everything clearly, never talks down, and genuinely wants what's best for your ride (not just what's best for the register). When I asked about upgrading my GT, Juan gave me real-deal advice: skip the pricey overhaul for now and go with a smart, phased upgrade strategy. That kind of honesty is rare, and it's why I'll always trust his recommendations. He even caught an indexing issue another shop missed and gave my wife thoughtful guidance on her bike's chain wear. You can tell he treats every bike like it's his own. Bottom line: if you're in the market for service, gear, or a new ride, ask for Juan Rivera. He's knowledgeable, down-to-earth, and makes Sun & Ski's bike shop a place you'll actually want to come back to.

I have been to this location many times in the past when looking for bike shoes and gear…read more They have a huge selection of ski wear on sale and have bought from them in the past even though not a big skiier. Be careful as walk through the store as their floor is not even and no signage as we tripped a few times as walk to left of store .Surprisingly, they haven't fixed that in the years they have been there. Tripping hazards aside, the store has a pretty descent selection of run and biking gear . Personally , like the Katy and Memorial City locations better for customer service and knowledge of products.

Kind of a weird vibe in here - but otherwise a normal Academy…read more Location/ parking : I'm so glad that there's at least 1 academy in town . They seem to always be on the outskirts. Because of this it seems a bit smaller than other locations but still has the basics They have a huge parking lot Selection: They have plenty of summer outdoor clothes which is what I came for . That being said, their women's swimsuits are really lacking ... I couldn't find a single plain one- piece They have the usual fishing and hunting sections too, though hunting is in a bump out separate from the rest of the store . In this Academy, fishing licenses are sold at checkout - not in the hunting/fishing area Dressing rooms: They had a lot of dressing rooms available. They were clean but dingey with no attendant Service: The greeter was very awkward and barely greeted me at all. Was an awkward entry. I didn't see another person until checkout and while polite , the cashier was very quiet and not particularly informative while I was buying my fishing license .

I mentioned some of the other things I was planning to buy eventually, and instead of trying to upsell me or push products on me, the guy helping me just gave me a ton of honest, useful information. That's honestly pretty rare nowadays. He recommended some padded cycling shorts to help with the pain I was having from longer rides and being a new rider, and I also picked up a tire chain lubrica. What stood out most was that he never felt like a salesman -- he just felt like a real, down-to-earth person who clearly loves bikes and enjoys helping people. There was zero pressure, just good advice and a friendly conversation. On top of that, he was super nice and even gave me a discount he definitely didn't have to give me. Overall, it was just a really refreshing experience, and I'll absolutely be going back.
