Rich's Boardsports

This place is an East Side Institution! If you have not been there yet; get to it... Rich is an encyclopedia of knowledge and will take the time to personally outfit you, your crew & your kiddos too. You will find what you need or he'll know where it's at. New & used gear, boat repair, lake permits, boards for ANY weather condition or surface, plus parts prep and repairs. This dude is a Guru; enter the shop as you would a Dojo or the home a new friend.✌

This place is incredible. Don't make any snap judgments based on the small appearance of the shop - Rich has a TON! I also love that he has a ton of Nidecker gear you just won't see anywhere else. Most importantly, Rich is a kind gentleman who is insanely intelligent when it comes to boarding. Countless times he's tuned my gear and given me great advice. Just today, he helped me fix a set of bindings I got from him. Rich made pennies for his time, but he ultimately fixed a broken high back on the bindings. He also made a back up high back out of the broken one! This seems trivial, but it wasn't - replacement parts for these particular bindings are very hard to come by. He charged me a very nominal price for a part, gave me an hour of his time, and saved me $200. This place is wonderful. Rich is even better. You won't be disappointed when you visit this Yogi of the snow!

I love this shop! Rich is very experienced and it's really nice to have someone just look at me and tell me exactly what will work best. Their prices are extremely competitive, and I do not mind paying a little extra to have a professional, comfortable setup. I also liked that waxing and tuning was done for free because I purchased there. It's a very homey, local atmosphere. No corporate sellouts here!
