“Pros: affordable, great outdoor experience, lot's of options, full service: dining, shopping, practicing. Staff is friendly, professional, and helpful.
Cons: can get really busy, targets not maintained diligently, and bays need to be better fenced to prevent casing flyovers.
Overall: one of the better ranges out there.”
“If you need a bike. do yourself a favor and visit Alrick at the Santa Clarita location. He'll do a great job to taking care of you and getting you into the correct bike for your needs. Sure, you might be able to find a "cheaper" bike somewhere. However, you get what you pay for....I always say; "Good tattoos aren't cheap and cheat tattoos aren't good". Lol! It's actually less expensive to "buy right" this first time.”
“Always find great deals here, and the staff are super helpful with finding stock and assisting you. Definitely my go to store for all my gym clothing and shoes. They even have some cute lounge wear for after the gym 😊”

“Went here looking for thermal underwear for my wife. Unfortunately they only carry the waffle pattern which would be fine with me but my wife wanted smooth thermals because she wears stretch pants a lot and says it would show through. Considering what we paid for smooth thermals at Target the waffle pattern ones at Big 5 were half the price and the much bigger selection.”

“I visited this big 5 location for the first time the other week and found the staff to be enthusiastic, extremely knowledgeable, and eager to help. The most memorable part of my visit to this store was my encounter with one of the employee’s named Cole. He made sure I felt welcomed and the we find the “perfect hiking shoe” (in his own words) together! Another plus I saw while trying on my shoes, a family with a special needs son walk in looking to buy shoes. Cole was calm, collected, and extremely patient with the son making sure to be extra careful. As a father this made my heart melt and realize what true customer service and hospitality really is. I finally finished my visit in the gun department hoping to see what guns they carried. After speaking to the manager (I believe his name was Jeff) who was also really helpful and nice informed me they no longer carried real weapons but still went out of his way to recommend me a different gun store. I look forward to coming back to this location many more times in the future!”
“This big 5 was a good one. Everyone was so nice there and helped me out to fine what I needed.the deals are great depending what you are looking for. At the end the cashier helped me get my stuff to my car and she didn’t need to and that was just an act of kindness.”
“This is a fantastic place filled to the brim with sports products of any kind. The staff here is always nice and grateful. The Hot Wheels section brings me joy. Thanks.”
“Had a great experience at this shop. Francis and Jake were very helpful amazing customer service! Highly recommended! We drove from out of town and got two amazing rackets from there. Well worth the stop!”
“I stopped by this Boarders store inside Northridge mall while my wife was shopping. I knew they would have skateboard here so I wanted to check out what they had. The store is a decent size on the second floor near the men's Macy. They were not busy on a Friday night and they have a decent amount of skateboard and skateboard accessories here. The prices of the board were reasonable and I also looked at some of their shirts. Nothing grab my attention so I didn't purchase anything. I also looked at their sunglasses selection at the front of the store but I prefer Oakley brand.”
“Didn't have an item @ the location that I initially went to.... but the found & located what I needed @ another location. So what that being said... I was able to purchase what I needed. Excellent customer service.”
“AS OF 8-13-25 For shipping and receiving big rig drivers. There is a couple of over night spots against the back wall. I came a day early to get loaded, Chewy the shipping manager had okayed that. These people are very nice. The receiving door is at 4. They do have you come inside while loading. The back up area for door 2 was a little tricky with the cars parked where your pull up space is but managed. Everything went well and I’d definitely come again.
Thank you for making my day.”
“I had such a great experience at lululemon thanks to Scott. He was incredibly friendly, and knowledgeable. Scott’s positive attitude and professionalism really stood out and made the shopping experience enjoyable. Customer service like this is why I’ll continue shopping here—thank you!”
“If you're in the area this is the only place for soccer gear you should be going too. My son plays for AYSO and staff always takes care of my son and I and give their opinions and thoughts on boots and gear and have a wonderful selection of team gear as well”
“Shop is a little on the small / cluttered side. Kinda hard to find first time as its back off the street behind a different business. They do have a good variety of soccer gear and other things such as shoes and boots. Went to outfit my son for soccer league and we were able to get cleats in his size as well as kids' shin guards and socks.”
“I came in because of Memorial Day sales. Customer service is excellent; friendly greetings, very accommodating in getting the right shoes. Karen helped me. Karen was very helpful in getting all the different sizes. I'm actually wearing the shoes out. Ask for Karen; she's awesome; she has nice looking nails too.”
“Called Dorsal and spoke with Mark and Kyle. These guys know their stuff. I came for a board bag and left with the bag, a leash, fins and soft racks. I had no idea they made so many surf products.”
“My experience shopping at Champs Sports in Northridge Mall was fantastic. Big shoutout to Jaine for helping me find exactly what I was looking for and answering all my questions. He has such a positive energy. And thank you to Ingrid at the register for greeting me with a great smile and making the checkout process smooth and easy.”
“My wife needed to get a pair of comfy sandals that were reasonably priced and Famous Footwear had a brand she prefers. She walked out wearing them and they have maintained the comfort she needed.”

“It was a good time the Bowling and the Experience but it's wayyy to pricey like $100+ for a 2 hour bowling ??? And then if your hungry the food are like amusement park price OMG ?. The food is delicious but in like 1 more hour or so you will feel a stomach ache (cause I've gotten the Cheeseburger) I don't know the rest of the food. But yeah and CSUN Students they also give Student Discounts also. 4/5 stars (if it was cheaper and a better price I will receive a 5) but all and all it's good but could be better ?”

“Masaya Sports soccer program is exceptional. The coaches are dedicated and skilled, providing professional training and guidance. They prioritize each player development and teamwork. The club also organizes competitive tournaments, allowing players to showcase their skills.”
“This is the cleanest and most organized store I have been in by far! Not only is the store so enjoyable to shop in but they have the best customer service by far and they genuinely seem like they’re happy to help me! Will definitely be coming back!”
“I have been a customer of Northridge Sports Collectibles going on over 30 years!!! I first went to the shop with my father, and now take my son. Brian has always been fair when it comes to buying and selling, and I can say that I have watched his son Ben grow up, and have most likely contributed to a college fund. When Brian is not in the shop, Ben and Jacob are knowledgeable and know how to give great costumer service. It is almost like a sports bar vibe with everyone hanging out and discussing a hobby we all enjoy!!!”
“So grateful for this small, mom and pop owned store. It's organized and there's a great inventory of used equipment. I'm sure they must rotate their selection seasonally. This most recent time we found exactly what we wanted for snowboarding and in the past, we got what we needed for summer beach gear. Highly recommend.”
“Excellent experience! Jaro was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and took the time to make sure my whole family found the right shoes. The customer service was outstanding, and I never felt rushed or pressured. I highly recommend this store and will definitely be back for my next pair!”
“If anybody wants good customer service I highly suggest going to the Northridge pro image sports store. The manager, James and his associate Efrain were absolutely amazing in taking care of my exchange.
Haven’t had great service like this in a very long time!”
“Great place to buy safety boots. They have a wide variety of shoes, from rugged steel-toe work boots to comfortable everyday options, and the staff were knowledgeable and helpful in finding the right fit.”
