I am new to surfing and am wondering what are the best surf board brands out there?
I went into a local surf shop and they had alot by a brand called Surface. Is this a good brand??
Any advice or answers would be good. Basically, what company makes the best surf boards?
I’ve never heard of Surface. Maybe it’s a small offshoot of a larger company. Major brands include: Billabong, Quiksilver, O’Neill, Volcom, and Rusty.
Some major shapers and board brands: Al Merrick – Channel Islands Surfboards, Jason Stevenson – JS Surfboards, Wade Tokoro – Local Motion.
As for who makes the best boards I wouldn’t really worry it right now if you’re new to surfing. Opinions will vary and you’ll need to rent boards and see what works for you.
Try to buy used so if it doesn’t work out you haven’t spent too much cash. Don’t buy until you have some experience though and have a better idea of what you really need and want.
In general, all major brands are considered good enough. Pick up Transworld Surf or Surfer Mag and read their reviews. Prowl the forums at Surfline and at Surfer Mag.
