Pac Sun has tons of Billabong stuff in thier stores. They currently don't carry longboards in the malls around me (Bay Area), but that could soon change. Zummie's are the mall skateshops around here, except at the Great Mall, SkateWorks opened a shop. It's the coolest mall skateshop I've seen yet (Zummie's is also in the Great Mall, but probably selling less boards now that SkateWorks is their neighbor).

This poll just points to the concept that for many 'core' skateshops, the softgoods are where the sales are. How else do you make sense of the list?
