After pulling out my windsurfing gear from the 80s, I found I was missing a couple parts. Noticed on their website that SXS bought and sold used gear so I made the trip down and chatted with Chad. Hes a very knowledgeable and friendly guy, and after showing him a couple pictures of what I had he helped me find the correct parts for my ancient kit at prices that were totally reasonable.After collecting dust for ten years, it was awesome to get it back on the water again! Thanks, Chad!
Great shop. Ive done business here for 10+ years and highly recommend it
Chad is the MAN! I’m a pretty broke windsurfer and he’s made the sport accessible to people like me and I can’t thank him enough. IMO the prices are fair and if you think that a trip to the shop is probably worth it, you won’t be disappointed.
Bought a bike from chad and he was very helpful and had service done on there also. he is honest and straight up with you and has reasonable prices
Chad and SXS is awesome. I called earlier in the week and asked to hold a windsurfing board for me until I was able to make the drive down from the twin cities. His selection of used and new gear is incredible. He worked with me on price and I ended up buying another sail and some more gear because prices were so good. Its refreshing to have a brick and mortar store and a non-gouging friend in the Windsurfing Business.
I just moved to Minneapolis, MN and I went to Chad to buy windsurfing gear and I had an amazing experience. He is very knowledgeable and friendly and have a great selection. Also he is willing to find things for you and ship it!
Passionate windsurfer that owns the shop. Chad is more than fair with pricing and does what he says he will do. There is more new stock here than anywhere in the twin cities, probably have to go to the ocean to find a store with more used stock than he has. He will buy your stuff too so if you are progressing and looking to upgrade he can help. Lessons also. I met Chad a couple years ago and have bought a few things and sold a few things to him..(just got a 2018 Ezzy 7.5 that I love!) long enough to get to know him and he is a good straight up dude.
Went here to get a second windsurfing rig, and was very happy with the selection of both new and used gear. Chad was very helpful in getting me the parts I wanted, and in answering questions. Highly recommended.
Great shop and extremely knowledgeable of the sport! Windsurf gear for anyone, from new/used and beginner-advanced; reasonable prices too. Very welcoming for new windsurfers in the community and we’ll be back!
Awesome team of experts. They shipped me the board .It came in pristine condition and it is exactly what I expected!!! 5 star service. Keep up the great work guys !!!
Fantastic sales rep. Went in to buy and walked out with a new bike. Was trying to upgrade and definitely did at a reasonable price that didnt break the bank.
Stopped by 10 minutes after they closed and they still looked at my bike and diagnosed problem free of charge. Best service in town by far!
I have been windsurfing for over 30 years and I am happy to have discovered SXS Windsurfing. I live in the western suburbs of Mpls, the 1 hour trip to Mankato was worthwhile. Chad is very knowledgeable and is willing to spend time to help you determine your equipment needs. SXS carries new and used equipment, so you can find something in your price range. Windsurfing technology has matured, making the used market very viable. I purchased a 2017 Ezzy Cheetah end of season closeout, Chads price was the best available. I will be working with SXS for my future windsurfing needs.
I have dealt with Chad over the years on several things. Great service ....very helpful. Dave
This store is small, both in size and variety. Id describe it as a powersport pawn shop; that is to say most items are used and random. On the plus side they are friendly and have good prices, worth a fast trip inside.
Great prices, and huge selection of used gear. Honest on quality and an enjoyable sales experience!
This store had large selection of used and new windsurfing gear. I am new to windsurfing and Chad spent alot of time helping us pick out a combination of used and new parts for a setup. Even though he had to stay late he showed us how everything worked.
Able to get the parts I needed quick and happily answered questions I had about gear i was interested in
I shop at SXS for both my windsurfing and motorcycle needs. Great customer service, knowledgeable staff and the correct parts arrive quickly.
