Huntington Beach's Electric Chair Skate Shop Evicted from Downtown Location
Familiar Main Street Business Forced Out
New Products Unveiled
Huntington Beach's Electric Chair skate shop, a longtime fixture on Main Street, has been evicted from its location. The shop, which has been in business for over 20 years, was recently informed that its lease would not be renewed.
The eviction has come as a shock to the shop's owners and employees. "We've been here for over 20 years," said owner Mike Vallely. "We're a part of the community. We don't know what we're going to do."
The shop has been a popular destination for skaters and surfers from all over the world. It has also been a strong supporter of the local community, sponsoring skateboarding events and donating to local charities.
The eviction of Electric Chair has sparked outrage among the local skateboarding community. Many skaters have taken to social media to express their anger and disappointment.
The shop's owners are currently looking for a new location. They hope to remain in Huntington Beach, but they admit that it will be difficult to find a space that is as affordable and as convenient as their current location.
In the meantime, the shop is continuing to operate online. They are also selling their merchandise at local skateparks and events.
