I went to Stockholm. There's lots of water there, but no surf. I did come across one of the coolest surf-shops I've seen in Europe though. Quite unexpected and I liked it a lot.
Like most shops they carry a lot of clothes, but at least they carried some unexpected brands. Lots of cool independent dvd's and surf-art by the likes of Andy Davis and other assorted artists!
Besides the stuff they carried I really liked the feel of the shop. lots of vintage surf and marine decoration, lots of vintage leather objects and best of all an espresso-bar!!! Complete with muffins and other grub to go with some good coffee. Enjoying some good coffee and a muffin while going through one of the cool surf photography and art books lying on the tables... ...sounds pretty good right!
Now they just have to work on their board collection. They had some nice boards and I guess business for surfboards will be a bit slow in Stockholm, but the shop would be so much cooler if they would carry a wide variety of different surf-crafts.
espressobar corner!
If you ever find yourself in Stockholm go check them out. They are somewhere in the SoFo part of Stockholm, don't know exactly where, google it.
looks great! no surfshops without coffee i say!
