How to choose your land surfing board?
There is nothing better in the world
when it comes to buying a land surfing board than to
be able to talk to the shaper that will make that board.
How to choose your surfboard?
The first question you face when you go
to buy a surfboard is the shaper or brand. There are currently hundreds, and
increasingly, shapers and brands that offer surfboards with very similar models
among them. However, it is always advisable to buy popular longboards.
It is clear that there are those of a
lifetime, those who have been doing surfboards since you have a reason, there
are also those who have already been in this world for some time and have
developed a status. Finally, there are new ones that try to reach the public
and the new generations.
When thinking about buying a new
surfboard, it is important to start from a logical and reasonable point. What
is your budget? With this simple question, you can remove all the options that
are not within your reach at a stroke and focus on the real alternatives you
have.
For all this, we always like to work
with our trusted shaper, we highly appreciate the previous conversations with
him when buying our new surfboard and above all, we always get things in code.
That translates into improvements in terms of models, measurements, and
designs.
Having said all this and having selected
the budget and the brand with which we are going to work, it is time to focus
on the important details as far as the surfboard itself is concerned.
First of all, it is to know that you are
not a pro surfer, therefore it is useless to think, that by becoming a
surfboard just like your favorite surfer you will go surfing like him.
We can indeed look at the best
longboard for cruising model that our favorite surfer is wearing,
but we have to adapt that model to our level of surfing, and there are even
times that model is not made for us or our level.
As a good surfer, we talk about
mentality. It is vital that you be realistic with your level of surfing and not
think that you are better than you are.
Be realistic when it comes to knowing
the maneuvers that you perform or can get to perform since at this point there
is the key to choosing a surfboard that is according to you and therefore can
serve you.
Finally, you must know that if you
are looking for a copy of your favorite surfboard, which you have recently
broken, we have bad news for you. It is almost impossible to be able to make
two surfboards the same, if you have split your favorite surfboard you have to
let it go, it will not come back as much as you try.
We hope that those tips that we have
given you and that we have written thinking carefully will help you choose the
right surfboard for you.
