For alt craft, Mollusk is the ultimate yolo brick and mortar in Orange Co and SF Bay Area. Online, I have flirted with YOLOing a Gato Heroi from Wild Things Gallery in Byron Bay, OZ. That would be a mic drop YOLO for someone from the states.
I feel like Mollusk has gone way downhill for board selection. It feels like almost all they stock these days are entry-level longboards and mid-lengths for beginners. Back in the day, a ripped an 8'2 dick brewer single fin gun off the rack. Haven't seen anything exciting on their racks in years. Thoughts?

Edit: LA and SB seem to have more interesting boards than SF.

I’ve seen some pretty sweet boards on the used rack at Mollusk SF, but haven’t been too excited about any of their new boards in a while

Randomly walked into LA mollusk maybe 4 years ago while wife was shopping. Was blown away at what they had. Almost bought two boards but they didn’t have a small travel bag for me to take them back.

Overpriced beginner mid length that you won’t even ride - that sounds like ultimate YOLO- need to step up your game bro.

Finally got a chance to feel up the '22/'23 CI YOLO quiver and it feels absolutely deadly. Here's the lineup.

Happy Everyday, 5'10 x 19 3/8 x 2 9/16, 31L
Two Happy, 6'0 x 19 1/8 x 2.5, 30.4L (probably should have gone 2 9/16 but I have a 6'1 I bought used that is 31L)
Happy Traveler, 6'2 x 19 1/4 x 2 9/16, 33L
Happy Traveler, 6'4 x 19 1/4 x 2 11/16, ??? need to double check
Happy Traveler, 7'0 x 19.5 x 3, 43L
Pink Gun, 8'2 x 20 1/8 x 3 1/8, 55L
