Mike Gives His Opinion On The Keel Fin Fish Surfboard

Well it has been quite a dry winter so far and for us at Hansen’s our snow season is about done.  As I am writing this blog post I think mammoth is going to get dumped on tonight and many parts of the country over the past weeks have finally seen some solid snow fall.  Over the past month we have seen our snow sales slow quite dramatically with the lack of snow locally and so we still have an amazing selection of snowboard and ski clothing and all the hard goods like skis, snowboards and boots to go with it. Our end of season snow sale starts February 2^nd and this will be one of our best snow sales yet as we do have a little more inventory then in past years.

 Make sure to stop by the shop during that weekend to score some great deals.  If you can’t wait until that weekend then make sure and give us a call and we can tell you about our presale deals!  We hope you are having a nice day and we will see you soon!

Mike from Hansen's surf shop talks with Heather Ford from F0x 5 news san Diego about Swami's Point and the surf from 10 days ago.  Checkout this video to see some great waves and learn about when these wave and others are the best and why you should or should not go surfing at Swamis.

I wish every day was Small Business Saturday

I’m like a guy when it comes to shopping. That is, if you make me go to a mall or a big box retailer, I shudder. I only go when I need something, and I do it as quickly as possible. In and out, with the minimum time necessary to get what I need. Then I bolt. 

I can’t stand the crowds, messy displays, chaos, and floor help who are impossible to find. If and when I finally get help, they act like they’re being asked to move mountains when all I’m requesting is something in my size. That’s why customer service is a huge deal to me. I’m not a recreational shopper, so why make the experience worse with bad service?

When I heard about Small Business Saturday (November 26), I was all over it. For one day, people are encouraged to shop at small businesses instead of large retailers.

I love that! Give people a cause to support small business!

Just added this new headphopne line to our offering in the shop.  Frends is a relatively new company that sells heaphones to the surf and snow consumer.   make sure and stop by the shop and checkout this great product.  We recommend this product as a solid gift option for the holiday season!

Black Friday Is Only One Day Away

We will have some specials going through the holiday weekend!  Checkout a few of the promotions we will have going.........

I can’t believe I waited this long to like UGGs!

I have a confession. And it’s almost embarrassing, especially because I’ve lived in Southern California for 23 years. I had never tried on a pair of UGG Australia Boots until last week. There. I said it.

I have a logical excuse. I truly thought the classic UGGs were ugly. Until I went to Hansen Surfboards and stepped into a pair. I really wish I hadn’t done that because it started a chain reaction.

I could blame it on Hansen Surfboards because they have the largest selection of UGG boots in North County San Diego, but I won’t.  Truth is, I wanted to check out the selection because I do PR for Hansen Surfboards and was working on a news release about it. I certainly can’t write about something I haven’t tried. I get really cold in the winter and I love the idea of UGG boots but I’ve never liked the way they look. I’ve always preferred cowboy boots, being the Texas girl that I am.

It is November 8th 2011 and as I pulled up for work at Hansen Surfboards I realized winter is here.
