Cool Places to Shop on the Eastern Waterfront

By Zannah NOE ( Dec 2004)

“It’s beginning to feel a lot like…” The brain fills in the blank automatically. As a veteran of Holiday Gift Guides.... I advise the rest of you to embellish your gift giving by shopping the shoreline and visiting some of these unique shops.

This isn’t just any Gift Guide. It’s for the harbor rats, ferry riders, mariners, day sailors, artists, SOMA and Mission Bay residents, and foodies of the Ferry Building. But in some way, that describes every San Franciscan. We all share the view of our fabulous Bay, so why not come down to the water’s edge and explore the new, the old, and the unknown sources of unique gifts and events. After all, it’s beginning to feel a lot like…C H R I S T M A S!

By appointment only

Endless slope is Sam Morishima’s school of extreme sports for everyday people and uh…primates. Learn to ski, snowboard, or surf on Sam’s indoor carpeted conveyer belt. For the absolutely inept or those that are curious to the extreme, Sam can train anyone, and I mean ANYONE. In fact, you have to see it for yourself, but he trained a chimpanzee to snowboard for the Disney movie MXP. That’s Most Xtreme Primate, for those of you without kids. Yes, the little monkey learned to surf carpet before hitting the slopes for the camera. Now that has to be the end-all testimonial for any instructor. He has schools in Sacramento. A single class is 30 minutes for $85. Price breaks are given for three or more classes. Instruction is one-on-one, informative and tailored to your skill level, whether it be novice or expert. Stick a gift certificate for a class in a stocking for those with two left feet.
