About Elephit Skate - N - surf shop

Elephit Skate - N - Surf Shop in Kapaa, HI, is celebrated as an authentic local hub offering both skate gear and custom merchandise. Customers consistently praise the friendly, easy-going staff and the shop's unique ability to quickly produce high-quality, personalized souvenirs for the whole family. This spot is ideal for skaters seeking quality boards and apparel, or visitors wanting unique, custom-made gifts that feel thoughtfully planned.

The Good

Customers overwhelmingly praise the shop for its authentic, 'old school' skate shop vibe and original, cool merchandise. The staff, particularly Sean and Carl, are frequently highlighted as being super friendly, welcoming, accommodating, and generous with their time. A major positive theme is the quick and easy custom printing service for shirts, sweatshirts, and other items, often done on the spot, making it ideal for unique, last-minute gifts. The shop is noted for having good prices and something for the whole family, extending beyond just skate gear.

Things to Consider

One detailed review reported a very negative experience regarding a custom printing request on a polyester bag. The customer felt misled by initial assurances regarding feasibility and turnaround time, followed by rude communication and last-minute cancellation attempts, culminating in persistent, late-night texting after the customer requested no further contact. While the board selection was described as 'all right' by one reviewer, it was not highlighted as a primary strength compared to the custom work.
