Amazing service and selection. My husband wanted to take our son on his first spear fishing trip. Ryan at Spear America was amazing and got them all set up. He definitely went above and beyond. My son, 13 year old, now loves spear fishing thanks to his great experience with Ryan. Thank you!

If you haven't already do yourself a favor and check this place out! Huge selection on everything spearfishing and diving. If you are new to the sport or a veteran the staff will help you with enthusiasm. The staff is very knowledgeable and answers every question you throw at them from shore diving to open water. It's the only place I go now for new gear and repairs.

Wow. Master class in terrible customer service by Assistant Manager Kevin yesterday. Wasted time,…read morerefused to do anything to correct the problem, and flat-out lied. What a loser. The problem: Went to Turner several months ago and bought a nice Shimano spinning reel for fishing Baja. Paid to load the reel with braid. Total price out the door $679.83. Got to Baja last week. Couldn't use the reel because the threaded screw coming out of the handle was the wrong diameter (too small) to thread into the reel body. Luckily I kept the receipt and all the original packaging at home. Assistant manager Kevin: Took the reel and original box back to Turner. Assistant manager Kevin tried to make the handle fit, but realized it wasn't going to work. After fiddle-farting around for 10 or 15 minutes he told me that he had no replacement reel or handle. He told me that I would have to contact Shimano (??), and that I had waited too long to bring the reel back. I pointed out that I had paid Turner for a reel that did not work and that there were months left on the warranty from Turner, so it was up to Turner to make things right. Incredibly, Assistant Manager Kevin said that he was not going to do anything. I asked for a refund. Assistant Manager Kevin gave me some line of crap about how he was going to have to "talk to his buyer" (??) to see if a refund was possible(??). An obvious lie, just a stalling maneuver. So he leaves and is gone at least 10 minutes. Meanwhile, another Turner employee comes over, an older man. I wish I had asked for his name. He had seen the issue before. He found the correct-sized threaded screw, replaced the too-small screw, and the handle installed perfectly. Took him about two minutes. Problem fixed. No wasted time, no need to contact Shimano, no need to 'talk to his buyer', none of the nonsense I got from Assistant Manager Kevin. Glad to have the problem resolved, but wrote this review to give a heads-up to watch out for Assistant Manager Kevin because he will waste your time and give you rotten advice.

My husband and I were shopping for Hoka's. They had a pretty small selection. They did have my…read morehusband's size but not many colors to choose from. They had none in my size and only one color available. I won't look for athletic shoes again at Dick's. Regarding service, they brought the men's shoe out right away. It took a while for them to bring out anything for me to try on. After we tried on the shoes, we never saw the salesperson again.

I popped into the store today to buy a couple of accessories for my Stanley 40 oz. cup. I've been…read morein this store quite a few times and they typically have a HUGE selection of Stanley, Yeti, Owala, and Hydroflask drinking vessels in addition to other brands. Today as I browsed around, I noted that the store was overwhelmed with World Cup gear which is cool, but the merchandise that I saw, including Jerseys, t-shirts, shorts, etc., was really crowded and disorganized and it looked like the Tasmanian Devil had whirled himself through it. The aisles were also impossibly packed with stuff, and it made passing other customers an obstacle course. Anyway, I also walked past the flip-flops with the intention of possibly purchasing a new pair for the summer. Leather Olukais were almost $90, simple Havaianas were over $40, and plastic Birks were $50. Needless to say, I didn't buy any... I'll stick with my beloved & comfy Reefs that I bought last summer. Finally, I walked over the water bottles... There was one type of Stanley straws available and they were $11.25. I looked online and the same straws were originally priced at $15 , but were on sale for $9. There were no Stanley "boots" in the store, so I couldn't get one of those. They had some made by another brand, and a few Owala ones, but none of the colors worked with my tumbler. So I just decided to get the straws. I asked the cashier if they honor online prices, and she said they did which I appreciated. She looked at my phone and said, "oh these other straws are the ones that are on sale." I said, "these straws (in my hand) are the only ones that you have in the store." And then she agreed to give me the discount... Keep in mind that the prices of the same item were different online vs. in store, and then the higher priced straws were discounted even further. Buyer beware... I left the store with my straws in hand, and a burning desire not to return to this store again, unless I absolutely have to, as the shopping experience was mediocre in my opinion. Mahalo!

Thank you to Bird and crew for all of your help finding my husband his first surfboard! Bird was…read morekind enough to demonstrate and give us a lesson in the back on how to surf. The value we got for the board where it came with a fin as well as getting guidance from a San Diego Surf Legend was incredible! We found a used board that was a perfect first board. It is so cool inside surrounded by so many surfboards with some being like a century old! You can tell that Bird and all staff are passionate about helping surfers as well as creating relationships. My husband absolutely loves his new board and is so excited to get out there to chase waves! We were really blown away by the experience by how kind everyone was as well as how encouraging and supportive they all were. Genuinely the best possible place we could have gone to when searching for a surfboard. We only have amazing things to say about Bird's Surf Shed and everyone who works there! We will definitely be back!

Between my husband and I we have officially bought five boards from the shop! Most recently we…read morebought two boards today, a 7'4 torque board and a 7'0 Tomo. We love coming to this place to buy our boards, one for the selection, two for the knowledgeable and honest staff. Most of our boards we have sought advice and guidance from Francois and today we had the pleasure of meeting Bird (the owner)! Which honestly I didn't realize was even the owner until after we left in my husband told me lol. I really enjoy how honest and knowledgeable the staff is it really has made my husband and I feel good about picking boards. Boards are not cheap, they are definitely an investment and the right technology size, length, type all can make a huge difference. So I don't trust anywhere else to go but this place! You can also do a demo rental at their OB shed location before you make a purchase!
