This is the largest sporting good store I've seen in the Pasadena area. It not only has great athletic gear, but also the latest styles from Roxy/Quicksilver, O'neill, and other popular surf brands. They have great snow gear during the winter. I used to rent my board here until I got my own. The pricing is pretty cheap, espeically when compared to places on the mountain. But the best part is their annual tent sale. It's out of control. You can get $60 jeans for about $20. They put tons of clothes, shoes, and equipment on sale. It gets a little crazy though because it draws lots of customers. But it's worth it for the money you can save on all the great deals!
