SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Central New York snowboarders, skateboarders, and even would-be surfers have a new outlet for their hobby.
BC Surf & Sport, an action-sports retailer, opened a 7,700-square-foot store last Friday, Aug. 15 on the first level of Destiny USA. The store is situated near Eastern Mountain Sports under the mall’s Food Court.
“Central New York isn’t known for its surfing, but BC Surf & Sport offers a large variety of items beyond surfboards, such as skateboards, snowboards, clothing, footwear, accessories, and more,” a Destiny USA news release said.
BC Surf & Sport started in 1977 with a small store in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. and now has more than a dozen locations across the country, according to the release. The new Syracuse store is its first in the Northeast.
“Since opening our first store in 1977, BC Surf & Sport has grown to be one of the top U.S. retailers in the surf, snowboard, and skate industries,” Bruce Cromartie, president of BC Surf & Sport, said in the Destiny news release. “With a huge selection, great prices, and the best in customer service, BC plans to have a home in Syracuse for years to come.”
Destiny USA first announced in February that BC Surf & Sport was coming to the mall, with a projected opening in the spring.
