Surfboard selector

I guess even after reading all the stuff about buying and choosing the right surfboard (surfboard types, surfboard design, surfboard construction) that you can find on this “this page is the shit” page (thanks Kevin :) ) you still need a little push at the end. From a friend, from your shaper, from the guy in the surf shop…whatever. Now there is a little push tool available on the internet that can point you in the right direction.

Surfboard selector

So which board is right for you? Two local surfers from New Jersey have developed a web based ”in the right direction pusher” that can help you decide on your next stick. You throw in some parameters like yous surfing level, height, weight, you push the button and a recommendation for you next surfboard pops out. The goal of the two surfers behind this is to give this tool to the industry, to surf shops, to shapers… so that they can communicate better with the buyers. If you want to check if you are riding the right surfboard or if you are just thinking of buying a new one then check them out, the demo of the tool. What I like about Surfboard Selector is that it is independent. There is no company trying to sell you their surfboards behind it.

Boards chooser

I am thinking there is no way this is the only surfboard selector on the web, I know at least one more. BIC surfboards makes surfboards aimed towards the beginner market and they have a Board Chooser on their website. Unfortunately, the results only come from their surfboard range. If you are buying a BIC surfboard then check this tool.

If you know of any other Board Selector tools, please let me know!
