I basically found all I was looking for although it took a while to get an item that I paid for and didn't see for a long time time. I actually forgot about it until I found my receipt. The second time the chicks in there were just rude to my friend. When you talk a place up and she walks in behind me and gets a "whattdya need" it's just lame. How about a "how are you" or "hi. are you looking for something in particular"? I'm not saying that you gotta try to be like Nordstrom but a little common courtesy goes a long way. Online is kinda the same. Whatever. There are lots of surf and sport shops between here and the Westside. Sorry guys.

Just had an incredible private lesson with Pilar via SUP with Wade!…read more I've wanted to try SUP for a while and decided to book a private lesson with my girlfriend, as we now live nearby. I have not worked out in several months and am overcoming a few health concerns. My girlfriend on the other hand is extremely athletic! Pilar introduced us to SUP in a way that allowed us to have fun from the moment we hit the water and enjoy together. Pilar provides us with clear instruction that allowed us to push ourself at our own pace but respected my limitations. We were provided with well maintained and sanitized gear. Parking was secure and easy, here in San Pedro. Pilar exudes positive energy. Through the lesson we realized she is a very experienced expert, yet she is approachable, makes it all feel easy, and shares about her personal journey and that really added to our experience. I will recommend Pilar to all of my friends and family, can't wait to continue to explore SUP thanks to Pilar's wonderful intro. SUP felt like a way to be athletic, be close to nature, and just play all at once. Thank you Pilar!

I'll definitely keep this one in mind the next time I need sporting goods.

He hooked me up with a bomb biscuit. I wasn't sure what it would feel like but it was exactly what I needed. I caught "nothing foot nothings," on my new custom board and it does well on bigger waves. I have to say I was also probably very difficult to deal with because I really didn't know what I wanted. Paint? No paint? Sand finish? Polished?
