Fantastic staff and the store itself. Just wanted to say thank you for helping me out the other day. I've got a kayak that you guys helped to get on the roof of my car and showed me how to properly secure it on top. Really appreciate the help, everyone was super helpful and friendly!

I went in to purchase a rain jacket for a birthday gift. I didn't realize there were SO MANY options! I left with two jackets and super impressed with the employee's knowledge on the matter....thank you, Albert for your help and patience :)
