An extreme sportist I am not. In fact, a sportist I am not. Even moreso, I’m not an extremist. However, a shopper I am. Well, the best that my wallet will allow me to be these days. So it happened that the two worlds–shopping and extreme sportist–collided today while I was visiting Orlando’s Florida Mall…in the shape of Adrenalina.

Adrenalina is a self-proclaimed “extreme store” — clothes, merchandise, and accessories for those who enjoy extreme sports like surfing, biking, skating, and more. But what really caught my attention was the flowrider — an actual, functional wave machine in the middle of the retail store. Crazy, huh?!?! This is reason enough to make a trip to the typically busy shopping mall. And if you’re brave enough, you can even try the flowrider yourself…for a mere $20 [for 30 minutes].

Here’s a little sample of what you can find at Adrenalina:

If you want to find out more about this unique store, and their flowrider, I recommend visiting their website or checking-out their MySpace profile at http://www.myspace.com/adrenalinastore.

Adrenalina certainly sets themselves apart from other retail experiences.
