Let Control Products serve you.

The photos and this ad make it seem like Control Products was a small fry, but I think these guys were actually pretty big players in the industry for a while.

For over eight years, Control Products has been serving retailers.

Our continued success depends largely on our concept of wholesale supply based on providing top quality materials and service. What it means to you is convenience. A retailer only has to make one phone call to order everything he needs to complete his inventory of surfing and skateboarding equipment. Everything. That means just one invoice and one freight bill to pay, too.

We can make this claim because Control Products offers a total variety of skateboards and surfing accessories. The only things you won’t find at Control Products are high prices and poor quality. That’s a promise. We have carefully selected the manufacturers we represent for providing the best quality designs. products, and service; so we’re confident to stand behind them.

We stock a complete line of skateboard trucks, wheels, and chassis; Elephant Brand tools: sealed and loose bearings; axle extenders, and replacement parts; as well as specialty items like the exciting new windskate. We also carry a large variety of surfing supplies, such as waxes, resins and pigments, surfleashes and leash attachments, and surfboard fins. At Control Products, you’ll find only the top-of-the-line names like Bahne, Cadillac, Power Paw, Tracker, B and K, Chicago, Control Wax, Fins Unlimited, Surfleash, Powercord, and

But we know that even such a huge selection wouldn’t mean anything if it wasn’t backed by dependable service. That’s why we make every effort to take good care of our customers. We’re proud of our reliability.

Let Control Products serve you. It only takes one phone call today to have your order shipped tomorrow. That’s convenience.
