Jeff is great he helped me get replacement wheels for my rollerblades and explained how to switch out the bearings. He gave me a great deal on some 84 mm wheels

The 10 year old in me had been yearning for a new pair of rollerblades since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic and Jeff's store was the right place to get them. Jeff was super knowledgeable about the various styles of rollerblades and additional protective gear. He offers a free wheel rotation for your rollerblades within the first year of purchase. There is street parking in front of his shop. Plus, his shop is conveniently located right next to the Long Beach bike path so it's the perfect spot to fast track your way into fun under the sun. You are truly supporting a small business by shopping here. :)

Recently picked up a soft rack to attach a newly acquired paddleboard from Facebook marketplace. This local shop was full of knowledge and passion for both windsurfing, paddleboarding, and kayaks. The owner was there and was very personable and knowledgeable in helping a total noob figure out how to affix a paddleboard to the top of his car. He told me the hard rack options are much more versatile especially for highway travel, but for driving to the beach and back in Long Beach specifically - a soft rack would do the trick. Really appreciate the guidance, knowledge and the fair prices!

I needed a part for my Hobie kayak so I stopped at the store to see if it was in stock or could be ordered. The opening was roped off so I patiently waited at the door while the owner was inside talking with a customer. I waited 5 minutes for some acknowledgment. Finally, the customer walked to the doorway with the owner following. The owner wouldn't stop talking to the customer so I continued to wait with the two right next to me. Owner didn't even acknowledge me. Eventually, the customer had to basically run away. Finally, he looks at me without even saying a word. I told him what I was looking for and he said he didn't have it. I asked if he could order it and he said "not now" and started to walk away! Came off as arrogant and inconsiderate. I will shop elsewhere.

Both the owner and his wife are patient, knowledgable, and customer service oriented. I spent time in the shop, and took a windsurf lesson from Jeff. Many years back I was at a lake and rented a windsurf rig but had no idea how to windsurf and it was not only a waste of money, but of time and effort. I was convinced I couldn't windsurf. Fast forward forty years, the desire was still there to see if I could windsurf. Jeff spent time in the shop helping me understand the theory and safety factors needed to succeed. Then he loaded up his vehicle with two rigs, and we were off to a beautiful bay where the waters were calm and the temperature just fantastic. First, I learned how to set up the rig (board to sail, etc.), then he had me on the board learning in real time with a tether rope to pull me back in as I learned (and went off course). After plenty of hands on learning, I windsurfed on the bay with Jeff on his rig nearby to encourage and continue teaching. It was money WELL SPENT. I have NO REGRETS, other than I wished I had built up the courage to try it many many years earlier. My short size (5'4") along with being older, and overweight did not prevent me from windsurfing and enjoying feeling young and free on the water. Do not hesitate to take a lesson and buy from this unique store and teaching/trainer. It's truly the only way to learn in a day so you can practice and have fun for the rest of your years.

I've been looking at sites and comparing SUP boards for about six months. I recently took a couple of yoga classes on boards. Today I talked to someone who owns an inflatable and was sold. Long Beach Windsurf is a neighborhood store and went there today. I received the most thoughtful service. I was given hands on instruction on assembly and breakdown. Their attention to detail and patience with me tremendously appreciated. I ended up purchasing a 10'8 Starboard.

I wanted to get into paddle-boarding and was thinking about just getting one online but being a beginner ; I wanted additional information and advise . Good thing I checked this store out . The owner was very helpful with setting me up with the right paddle board for my size and style. He also made sure I had everything I needed . I also got beginner tips before heading to the water .
