Got some gloves from here that I’ve been looking for, for a few months. Super fast shopping , and to top it off they sent me a killer post card and sticker with a personal handwritten message on it! It’s relieving to see that there are still companies out there with caring personal courtesy! I will be purchasing from them again!

I have always in the back of my mind wanted to surf. Living in Ontario though I just assumed it would remain one of those dreams that you let go as the years passed by. Well Antonio and his surf crue at Surf the greats have made that dream a reality. Literally from the time I walked into STG in spring of this year and until I caught my first wave just last week in September, right here in Lake Ontario I have felt supported in making it a reality. I started with the Carver skateboarding lessons to help condition surfing type movements on land during the summer. I've never been on a skateboard in my life and this in itself was another testimonial to the well planned navigation from dreaming of surf to being on surf. I also took the Flat water course which helped teach all the theory of paddling, turtle rolls, popping up and envisioning the soon to come waves. And lastly I took the forecasting workshop so that I new what to look for in weather patterns as predicting waves on Lake Ontario is not the same as the Ocean. With attentiveness and care I was matched with a surfboard and wet suit and gear.. and have been on the waves right here in my home town of Toronto. From the shop, to the land to the lake, Antonio and his crue were always there to ask for support and through his classes have also given me the chance to meet a bunch of new friends whom I hope to surf with all winter long. Thank you to everyone at Surf the Greats, you've made a lifelong dream come true.
This shop is my absolute favourite place to go in the city. Everyone in here is helpful and knowledgeable. When you walk in you feel like you’re among friends, the community that this shop has created is inclusive and beyond amazing. They also have a world class cafe. I can’t say a single bad thing about STG. A world class business with world class service.
Just competed a great customer experience with Surf the Greats. I had preordered a cold water wetsuit. There were some delays with COVID and the suit when it arrived wasn't quite what I expected. I have had lots of wetsuits and was being a little picky, however at the end of the day the suit ended up being an improvement over the previous editions of the suit and I'm quite pleased. My only suggestion was a pocket that fits a key card.
Lucas and Antonio are passionate about the business and the local surf culture. I've purchased cold water wetsuits/Mitts/Boots (they are perfect, thank you!) as well as attended some workshops. Antonio and Lucas are friendly and very knowledgeable. They genuinely wish each and every surfer to have fantastic experiences in and out of the water. I'm glad I started surfing in Lake Ontario this summer. COVID travel ban has turned into an opportunity to discover surfing in my own backyard. Whenever people come up to me on the beach and ask me about how to learn surfing, I always recommend Surf The Greats for the lessons. A huge thanks to you guys for staying strong during pandemic and keeping us surfers have good times!
