Surfboard FAQs
What is the lifespan of a surfboard?
Surfboards should have a lifespan of many years, with some surfboards from the 1960s still being surfed today. It will depend largely on how much damage the surfboard receives and how well fixed it is afterwards. Unless you are surfing very heavy waves, it is unlikely your surfboard will snap, which would mean it is no longer usable. Most damage is from compression dings, people colliding in the water or you hitting some rocks/the shoreline. Any minor dings you can try to repair yourself or if the damage is severe, then take it to a surfboard repairer.
What kind of surfboard is best for beginners?
The best surfboard for a beginner is typically a soft top surfboard or foam surfboard. This is a board that has a thick foam construction for the deck and the side rails. This makes it floaty, easy to paddle, harder to damage and also not as heavy if it was to hit you when you wipeout. This makes them a good choice for children as well. Once you have mastered surfing a soft top surfboard, you will want to buy a fibreglass surfboard. Make sure you buy one that is large enough, to help you paddle easily.
Should I wax my surfboard every time?
You may not need to wax your surfboard every time you surf, however you should also check to make sure before you paddle out. If it feels that there is not much wax left, then apply some more again. If there is enough wax on the board, but it is very flattened down, you can use a plastic wax comb to roughen it up and provide you with more traction. Make sure you keep spare wax and a wax comb in your car or van just in case. And always take some with you if you travel away on a surf trip.
Is it bad to leave a surfboard in the sun?
Yes it is generally bad to leave your surfboard in the sun for prolonged periods of time. This is because the sun's UV rays will cause damage to it. In some cases this can mean a weakening of the board itself or a yellowing discolouration.
