E-glide

We're proud and excited to announce that the shop is now carrying E-Glide skateboards. It's been a while since we've carried electric boards, and after a lot of requests and research, we found E-Glide. They're made here in the U.S.A and the decks are name brand: Dewey Weber, Sector 9, and Madrid.

We've test drove them and these boards are amazing. Because of the European electronics and the direct cable connection between throttle and board, these boards are better built and more responsive than the first generation boards we carried a few years back. They're great too because E-Glides are designed for easy part replacement, and customers can self service their powerboards. In shipping, one of our boards got damaged and E-glide was quick to send out new parts resulting in an easy fix.

Check out http://www.e-glide.com/ for the full line of boards and parts.

Sounds of Waves: live the life you love. A film about surfing, music, and people.

Playing right now in the shop is a new DVD called Sound of Waves by the guys from Monumental films. The whole crew had gone to the premier party out in Sag Harbor back in September and it's an awesome movie.

It features an all-star lineup of pros including our team rider Damien Wills and local Chris Tomlin, sweet footage from around the world and a soundtrack that will keep you jamming.

Oh i forgot to mention... not only does it showcase our boy Damien, but... drum roll please... a whole section featuring the Nature's Shapes showroom and Mike shaping a board from start to finish. It's cool to see the shop from when it first opened up and gives you insight into how much of an art form hand-shaping a board truly is.

Despite all that it's worth watching just for the sake of seeing all the footage from South America. It's mind blowing how beautiful the waves and the scenery is.

Be sure to check it out, it's definitley a must see film and we have copies for sale in the showroom.

Wetsuits!!!!

Weather's getting chilly quickly with all this rain. We just got in lots of mens and womens wetsuits from Hyperflex, West and Ripcurl. We also have a full stock of gloves and boots to keep your fingers and toes toasty.


The showroom is also busting at the seems with new and used boards. There's suppose to be a decent swell coming through this weekend, so why not come on down and pick up a new board to surf?

Fall Swap

Here we go again... Temperatures are starting to dip along with the prices of our summer clothing. This upcoming weekend (Oct. 3rd and 4th) we are having a sale on wetsuits, accessories, summer clothing and even boards. Check out the flyer for additional information. With the cooler temperatures (and apparant lack of waves lately) you should come in and check out our growing selection of DVDs including copies of Mike Detemples new movie "Picaresque", and Poor Specimen's "Days of The Strange".

Don't forget to bring your old boards for the swap. If your board sells you get a store credit... pretty simple, come by and check it out.

Back to school, back to school, to prove to Dad that I'm not a fool....

It's that time of year again, where we all channel our inner Billy Madison and start getting ready for the fall. The days are getting shorter, nights are getting colder. The beach is getting less crowded!

Well to combat the back-to-school blues we're offering up a remedy: All this week and next weekend all clothing and accessories in the store are 25% off. That's right, all hoodies, t-shirts, jeans, walkshorts, flannels and dresses are on sale. We want everyone to look sharp for their new year, whether you're a student, parent or teacher.

We just got in a bunch of new logo t-shirts (for guy and girls), as well as a new shipment of women's ripcurl 3/2s. Both are sure to keep you nice and toasty as everything starts to cool off.

Good luck with the new academic year and have a blast this holiday weekend!

BIG BILL SWELL!!!!

It's being predicted that there will be epic waves coming our way on Sunday and early into the week courtesy of Hurricane Bill. In preparation for the big storm we have a nice selection of mini guns in the showroom, along with a lot of other new boards that came in from the factory a few days ago. We also have a wide array of leashes, from 6 ft. comps to 10 ft. knees!


The showroom is open until 8 o'clock tonite, 10-6 tomorrow (Saturday) and 10-5 on Sunday. Come by and visit, or call with any questions you may have- someone will gladly do their best to answer them for you.
