About Surf Ride Boardshop

Surf Ride Boardshop in Solana Beach offers an extensive inventory spanning surfboards, wetsuits, apparel, and lifestyle gear. Customers consistently praise the staff for being knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely helpful in guiding purchases, often highlighting the impressive selection across product categories. This shop is ideal for dedicated surfers and newcomers alike who value expert advice and a vast inventory to find exactly the right equipment.

The Good

Customers consistently praise the extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful staff who provide sincere advice and personalized service, often leading to excellent board recommendations. The shop boasts a huge and diverse selection across surfboards (new, used, exotic, custom orders), wetsuits, apparel, and accessories. Positive mentions also include fair prices (though some disagree), convenient locations, good sales/deals, and unique features like the resident dog and the Awayco board rental program.

Things to Consider

The primary negative feedback concerns pricing, with several reviewers noting that the boards, in particular, are expensive or on the high side. Other isolated complaints include very limited parking, one instance of poor customer service (being made to wait outside before opening with a gruff clerk), a perception of incompetence from some younger male staff members, and one serious allegation regarding unfriendly behavior towards the Hispanic community.
