Sunset Shapers

It’s a real surf shop. We don't have sandals or branded t-shirts. We just carry the necessities to go surfing in San Francisco. The surf here is pretty different than places like Southern California, so people may find their equipment doesn’t work quite as well here. Our gear is a little more Ocean Beach-specific. We do retail sales, but making custom surfboards is definitely the core of our business. We also do private one-on-one lessons, where you can learn to make your own board. And there's a big window into the shaping room from the retail part of the store, so you can just come and watch what's going on.
