I'm riding with my aunt uncle and cousin to chicago tomorrow for about a week and I have never been before other than to O'Hare. Are there any dope ski shops or cool things I should check out?

Go to a cub's game at wrigley field.  Eat at portillo's (best hot dogs and italian beef in the world).  Take a river boat architectural tour.  If you are old enough to drink, hit up the wrigleyville bars.  Get some deep dish pizza.  I've been living here for a month, and that's what I've done so far.  It's cool here.  You'll find something to do.

The Embassy Suites on State street more towards the lake has a really good pizza place. ESPN ZOne is pretty cool i guess. Michigan Avenue is a pretty good place, as long as you're north of the river.

I misspelled the word "things" and it was clearly a typo because the only mistake I made was typing g before n. If I titled the thread "things to do in shikago" I could see why you would want to be the first asshole to correct my spelling.

go to michigan ave/water tower, visit the john handcock building (obervation deck is as high as sears tower and it provides better views and is only like 15 bucks), the field museum is awesome as is the chicago art institue

go to restaurants, there are so many amazing ones even if you're on a budget. DEFIANTLY go to uno's lou malnatis or magianos for some deep dish. there's a billion things to do in the city but one i think would be cool that i've never done cuz i've lived there my whole life is the segway tour those look so cool. if you are in the need to go to a ski shop Viking Ski Shop is on the north side on fullerton which sense you don't know the city is in a sketchy neighborhood but your best bet would be the burton store right off michigan ave. theres some cool stuff in there too. if your over 18/ will be drinking or going out late on the north side look into going to the weiner circle, place is fun as hell late night. best hot dogs in town are hands down Hot Doug's. i hope this is helpful and have fun man
