Today I had a personal skate session with Toni. I haven't been on skates since 2013 or so. I learned so much about skating. Who knew that you need different wheels for indoor skating vs outdoor. It made a huge difference to meet with someone that knows about the sport and can make honest recommendarions. Toni was very patient, thorough and encouraging. Such great customer service. I was so nervous about falling. I started letting go and just had fun. I also got to visit her cool shop. I really loved the energy in the store. It's laid back and welcoming. Her staff is very sweet just like Toni. I purchased a good pair of skates and protective gear. I can't wait to start practicing again. I plan on taking one more session but this time it will be outdoors. I will definitely be returning to see Toni. The shop is located next to several stores and across from Costco. Gotta check it out.

I got lucky enough to find Surf City Skates the very same week I moved to Huntington Beach. That was about two years ago, and its truly been an experience working with Toni over those years. I initially went to her store for some bearings on these wheels I ordered online. I got more than just bearings, I ended up signing up for skate park lessons, too! This girl KNOWS whats up. And I clearly didnt! She coached me effortlessly, and taught me how to skate safely and properly. She had me dropping in bowls in no time. Toni is seriously a badass. I trust her 100% in all my skate needs - and she has NEVER steered me in the wrong direction. Her passion and love for her business is abundantly clear, and you can tell she loves what she does. To date, I think shes now built 4 pairs of skates for me. Custom Vans, a Moxi rebuild and Sure Grip skates to mention a few. Ive never skated better. She taught me her ways and Im forever indebted to her.Thanks so much for your stellar customer service and LOVE. I couldnt have asked for a better experience!!

So me and my friends decided to do a day trip to Huntington Beach, we got there around 5 am and just relaxed on the beach till we went around looking at the shops and we came across Surf City Skates! I was so excited because I have been looking for skates but unfortunately they are sold out every where because of all the little girls from TikTok haha... Anyways we waited 3 hours just for them to open and let me tell you I dont regret it at all as soon as we walked in Kate greeted us and helped us with any questions we had. She was very sweet and helpful and let us try on some skates so we could find the right size, she is very knowledgeable and make the experience of buying the skates very fun and easy. I ended up buying a pair of my own and I just want to thank the staff for being so welcoming to me and my friends

You and your friends were so kind and funny, and it makes me happy to see girls like you getting into this community of skating. Hope you guys take another day trip when you get your skates and we can skate together! Thank you for your wonderful review 💜
