2007 BEST OF SILICON VALLEY Staff Pick and Reader Survey Winner - First Place

Best Surf/Skate Shop
Of all the downtown retail arguments, fiascoes, debates and debacles, the little guy who actually does succeed often gets completely overlooked, especially if that person doesn't offer upscale furniture or men's clothing. Circle A is one such establishment. Located in one of the pristine glass kiosks on Paseo de San Antonio, the place offers shoes, decks, trucks, clothing and a vast array of skate-related paraphernalia. Hope they keep on shredding.
