Surf and Skate

My wife and I drove up to Surf and Skate from Yuba City to purchase a scooter for my son. We walked in and were instantly greeted by the owner! This was the greatest experience I’ve ever had at a retail store. You can totally tell it was a locally owned and operated business just by the hospitality and great service we were provided! Not only did we make a scooter purchase we hung around and talked about current events. He even let me sit on his custom motorcycle he had in the showroom! I will defiantly be back and I encourage anyone to get out here and support this store! Thank you again my son loves his new scooter!

Just read the post on the gentleman with the long board. I find that hard to believe since I purchased a scooter some ware else and I took it in to the shop and had Bob look at it. He told me the scooter was good for what my son was doing with it. He took his time and did not ask me to buy anything from him. Since that time 5 months ago I have purchased a skate board, scooter and many parts. I WILL NOT GO ANYWHERE ELSE, BEST SHOP AROUND.

Called ahead to ask if they sold longboard decks by themselves and a woman said yes and to bring my old board with me to make sure the trucks and wheels would fit. I told her I appreciated that since I was coming from Elkgrove about a 45 minute drive away. After I get there the owner of the shop, a man don’t know his name, told me that I had to buy the deck before he would even take the trucks off the deck they were going to sell me. He was completely rude and very unprofessional even after I explained to him that I had just called before making the 45 minute drive. I explained to him that I too am a business owner and if I treated my customers like that I would be out of business. My recommendations are to shop elsewhere the owner of the shop does not deserve to be in business if he treats his customers this poorly. Probably no wonder why he went from multiple locations a couple years ago to one. I would rate this shop with a zero if it were an option.

Awsome shop I can’t believe how much they have and Bob and Hellen are great people don’t go anywhere else! I will stop here every time I roll through this town! Thanks for the great help keep it up!

Wanting to support a mom & pop shop we went to Surf & Skate today to fix up a board our son picked up at a thrift store. Originally we were just going to buy some grip tape but after realizing how messed up the deck was (water damage) hubby and I decided to just get him a new one. We were not pressured at all and were shown their own brand which if course was lower priced. She (the ower) put the grip tape on for us, fixed a broken bearing and oiled then all free of charge. Our son’s friend was with us and she offered to check hers out for free too. It was fun to listen to her talk with the kids. It was like they all spoke the same language… one I do not! Our son is already planning a trip back after his birthday.

I just had a great experience at Surf and Skate. I went in the store not knowing much about scooters or how to size the various types of scooters to my son.
I had done a little research so I had an idea. The scooter I thought I was going to buy was over $ 300. After talking with the owner we settled on an awesome scooter for $ 220. I am really happy with the decision I made. I thought it was very professional of the owner to give me guidance which saved me money. He could have very easily let me go forward with the larger purchase but he knew this was too much for my son and his skill level. The selection here covers many brands and styles. You can go completely custom or buy a complete skate or scooter.
Also these guys have a ton of apparel, hats, t-​shirts, you name it. The place is well organized and fully stocked. I recommend doing business with this establishment.

Best skate shop in the area! Bob is super helpful, knowledgeable and always makes sure you get what you need. He never tries to sell you more than what you need. Great family store. I would recommend this shop over any other shop in the area!

These guys are the best skate shop around. The turn around on repairs is quick and Bob is always there with a smile. We pass by three skate shops on our way to Surf n’ Skate. We wouldn’t even consider buying our gear form anyone else!

I have never been to Surf & Skate until last Saturday. I generally got my kick-​scooter parts from on-​line suppliers, but I felt disconnected due to the lack of personal interaction and direct knowledge access. I had 3 Razor XL trick scooters that needed tuning up, and I was reminded by some neighborhood kids that I could get them fixed at Surf & Skate in Citrus Heights. I was fearful that the prices would be unlike the deals provided via internet services, but Bob and Helen [as they gladly introduced themselves] really offered reasonable prices on the parts I was looking for. I replaced 3 sets of wheels/​bearings/​boardtape/​handles, and have tighter, or «tuned» scooters within my budget. Plus, I got the personal /​knowledgeable help I yearned for. I really am glad to have met the staff at Surf & Skate and now have a good and competent place regarding my kick-​scooter needs.

Very much appreciated the GREAT service from everyone at Surf and Skate today! My daughter brought in her first longboard, parts, etc. to begin her skateboarding experience and she left with a vote of confidence and a well assembled board!
Happy New Year!

Currently have been waiting 30 mins for the store to open. They are only open 4 days a week, have not updated their new hours online, and are currently still closed even though the sign posted on the door with the new hours say it opens at noon. It’s now 1215. I would ditch this place in a heart beat if there was anywhere else that sells swimsuits in November!

Brought my sons Lucky scooter in to be serviced. The gentleman there worked on it and found some water in it cleaned it out and tuned it up for no charge. My son was so happy his scooter was fixed and we were so thankful for the incredible customer service! We couldn’t of chose a better place to buy scooter from! We will definitely be return customers for any surf/​skate/​clothing needs!

This is a great local shop; I went in for a bathing suit during off season & found one I liked. I had a little trouble finding one, at first, but everyone was very accommodating & I found a great one for my trip to Maui!

Great place, will be back again. The gentleman there was friendly and knowledgeable. I was looking at wetsuits, and he was a great help, speaking from his own experience and expertise. Fair prices, comfortable atmosphere in the store. Recommended.

I came in with nothing but questions, and left with one hell of a board. The service is terrific, the staff make you feel welcome as soon as you walk in. Will definitely recommend to my friends and anyone interested in skateboarding, dont hesitate, Bob is a great guy and will help you with anything you need.

I used to visit the Elk Grove location years ago when I lived there. I moved to the Sacramento area and never found another location, until now! I just moved around the corner from here, met the owner, and an employee and they were fabulous people. They told me about the new bikinis coming out next week, and what is on sale for the winter. I can’t wait to go back there for my summer shopping needs to get ready for the water!

Ryan (I think that was his name) at Surf and Skate was EXTREMELY nice and helpful. Helped me out for free which now a days NEVER happens. I will definitely be back and will happily spend my christmas money there. Thanks for putting the fins on my son’s wakeboard!

I’ve been a supporter/​custumer of s&s on Arden Way for the past 14 years, but I have to say, this location on Greenback SUCKS! Big empty store with nothing to buy. Now that I live in the area, I walk in on a 80+ degree day, ready to buy all kinds of shorts and a pair of shoes, but the have neither. All of the gear racks were small/​empty. I wear a 38 size short; they have one lame ass pair and they don’t carry shoes. That is a common size for shorts, but it’s not the only common size I noticed they have few or no options of. I say «where are all the shorts?». «We haven’t ordered them yet, come back in a couple weeks». I walk in today, on a 90+ degree day, a FEW weeks later. Same lame ass pair of shorts sitting on the rack and I hear «come back in a couple weeks». Be on top of your game; carry some f’n gear. I don’t want to shop on the internet or crappy (likely at this point to have more gear) mall stores. IMO this part of the local chain sucks.

Amazing place. I’m surprised no one has written a review on them yet!
My boyfriend and I were visiting my mom in Sac when we gander over and see this place. We are both really into any sport with a board so we venture in. They have such amazing stuff! Great sales and deals! All women’s denim was $ 15 or something ridiculous like that so I picked up some sweet RVCA pants for that price. Really amazing! They recently closed some stores and so all the gear is all in this one shop, hence all the deals– they simply don’t have any room for it.
Also, the owners are really friendly and helpful. They told me if I find some gear I like to bring it to them and they’ll give me a better price and they were true to their word. I got such a great deal on my new boa snowboard boots.
Oh! I saw the main owner (an older cool-​looking gentleman) help this younger boy and his mom buy a longboard. He was giving the little boy safety, riding, and maintenance tips. It was too adorable that I wanted to die. You can really tell that he loves what he does. It’s really rare to see that nowadays.
Another cool thing about this place is they have a place to skate out back too. Awesome!
They also rent out winter equipment!
I WILL BE BACK!
