SURFBOARD LEASH
Wednesday, 14 February 2007

Surfboard infoA surfboard leash is the cord that attaches a surfboard to the surfers leg. It helps you keep your surfboard when you wipeout. Without it you would have to swim after your surfboard every time you fell. There is also the risk of your surfboard hitting someone in the head while running towards the shore and the danger of swimming without a surfboard through the lineup. Strong currents can be really dangerous without a surfboard. And at the end, there is a big chance that when your surfboard reaches the shore it will find the only rock there in hit it. You can also thank your leash for less surfboard dings. Surfboard leash guide.

SURFBOARD DESIGN
Monday, 15 January 2007

Surfboard infoA surfboard could be just about the hardest piece of sport equipment to buy. There are so many variables that influence the way the surfboard will ride and there are so many different shapers and surfboard model, even if we do not get into the custom shaped surfboards. What kind of tail do you want, what kind of rails do you wan, what kind of fin set-up, what kind of rocker, do you want channel bottom, how thick, how wide etc... it can get confusing at the beginning. To sort things out, read our surfboard buyers guide.

HISTORY OF THE SURFBOARD
Monday, 15 January 2007

Surfboard infoHistory of surfboards, we came a long way. Can you imagine riding a 35kg/77lb heavy wooden surfboard with no fins and no rocker? I can't. This is exactly how the first solid surfboards looked like. So these days we can be grateful for new materials and light surfboards that fit under our arm as the fist surfers were (actually would be, if they knew what lays ahead) grateful for clean oceans and empty lineups. In How surfboards evolved through history from unimaginably heavy wooden planks to light and manoeuvrable surfboards.
