If you live or have surfed around San Francisco/Mill Valley, chances are you've stopped through Proof Lab to shop a fine selection of surf/skate gear, grabbed a coffee at Equater, skated the bowls in the back or maybe had lunch at their Hook Fish restaurant across the lot. Now the largest and most reputable surf shop in the area, Proof Lab started small like the rest of us over 20 years ago from a dream of two young surfers, Nate McCarthy & Will Hutchinson.
Nate & Will actually worked at a surf shop called 'Marin Sports' nearby when they were in there teens, only to return home after college, take over the business and create their dream shop, Proof Lab.
Last year we were lucky enough to hang with Cody, Nate & the rest of our good friends at Proof Lab for the Cron Test, their local surf contest at Fort Cronkhite/Rodeo Beach for a fun day of competition, adding a Pyzel demo to the mix for people who've been wanting to try one of our new models and even gave a White Tiger away to one of the groms who won his age division (congrats Henry!).
The 'Cron Test' is the only surf competition in the greater San Francisco area where young surfers can meet up for a fun day of competing and pushing each others surfing to the next level, so big shout out to Proof Lab for putting on a great event, hosting our Pyzel crew and supplying Mill Valley with the best surf gear around!
