Top Surfboard Rentals for the Pros and the Newcomers

Glide with Longboard Brilliance (for beginners)

9 Ft SSR Maxx

These surfboards are ideal for newcomers or non-experienced surfers who struggle with pop-up fundamentals. The 29-inch width along with 4.5-inch bolt-thru performance fins provide stability even through the roughest waves, hence helping you surf with ease building up your skills and confidence.

10 Ft Buell

These surfboards offer more stability and catch speed easily. If the 9 Ft boards don’t suit your preference as a beginner, then the 10 Ft Buell is your best choice.

Soft-Top Surfers (for building up your skill set)

8 Ft Wavestorm

The flagship of surfing lessons worldwide. These boards offer great stability and control because of their triple-wooden-stringer underneath their visible center line; making them ideal for learners. It’s one of the fan favorites when it comes to surfboard rental in San Diego.

9 Ft SSR

Like the Wavestorms; it is very durable, and can handle day-to-day lessons and rentals, making it one of the most popular options for learners and coaches alike; a worry-free experience is guaranteed with such durable equipment. Its length and width offer both speed and adequate floatation.

Fish-Style Boards (for intermediate and advanced)

9 Ft Performance SSR

These surfboards offer both stability and maneuverability for surfers who gained some experience and are seeking to improve their skills and techniques. Fish-style boards are narrower and have a fine-tuned design to be performance-oriented

Mini-Longboards (for intermediate and advanced surfers)

7 Ft Buell

Mini-Longboards are the next step for advancing surfers who are ready for a challenge. They are the bridge between Longboards and Shortboards; as they offer more maneuverability and are tailored for surfers with more expertise, but they don’t compromise stability either making them ideal for beginners on their way to proficiency as well. If you are a seasoned surfer then step up your game and show off your skills with our 7 Ft Buell.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often are your surfboards inspected and maintained?

Our surfboards are inspected and maintained after every use. Our commitment to providing you with premium service and top-quality surfboards is our priority. We will only rent surfboards in their optimal condition to offer you a seamless and safe experience.

Take into account the weather and wave conditions. Barreling waves and glassy weather are ideal for surfing, although a little wind isn’t much of a problem either. Choose the area of the beach that best faces the direction of the swell. Swells are the waves that are not produced by the local winds; those are the longer waves you are looking for. Remember take care of your surfboard, and your surfboard will take care of you.

When you rent a surfboard on a day with small waves (1-3 Ft) go for a shorter board with more volume and width because it can catch more speed and have better maneuverability. For medium Waves (3-6 Ft) a moderate length and volume works well providing stability and control. For large Waves (6+ Ft) longer, more streamlined boards with narrower outlines are preferable.

Surfers are passionate about the ocean; they are as much a part of the biodiversity of the ocean. Taking care of the ocean is taking care of home for them. With that said, surfers always adopt the ‘leave no trace’ principle. They make sure that nothing of their stay on the beach is left and all trash is disposed of in the right bins. Surfers should be careful not to harass marine life and avoid surfing in nesting seasons.

Our institution has committed itself to providing our surfers with a lifelong learning path. We have built strong bonds with our students and have monitored their progress. Opportunities for continuous education with advanced programs are set to enhance the skills of our students as they improve. We have invested time and energy to find the best surf instructors who will guide you through this journey.

Yes, you can rent a surfboard for a group or special event. Our services are tailored to provide flexible and convenient rental packages. Choose the package that covers the duration of your event; the quarter day, half day, or full day packages. You can also choose to rent more gear like surfboards and wetsuits at the same time for instance. And we suggest you get surfboard insurance to cover any damages to the gear in case of accidents.
