Suncoast Surf Shop Sells Garbage
Unfortunately, this board is just not working out. I guess I’m just going to have to go to the east coast to pick up a new one. This board is just trash. It probably says something about communist and socialist policies where the amount of effort you put forth doesn’t impact the reward you receive. This board came with a little sticker that said, Made in China. My recommendation is, don’t buy the trash that comes out of China or the garbage surfboards they’re trying to peddle at Suncoast Surf Shop. You might want to try going to the east coast to buy one.
The board doesn’t ride like it should and it’s shape is wack. The manufacturing is just garbage. Why are they selling this trash. I was riding it at honeymoon with a light crowd and the slightest ding destroyed the board, a regular collision. Kahekili was taking off on a wave, and we had the lightest board on board contact. It put a gnarly gash down near the tail by the fins. Then, just now, as I was taking a picture of the board for the last and final surf wax, you’re using too much article post, I leaned the board against the wall, only to have it fall over. It fell over as all of my other boards have 100 times before, except that there’s something wrong with this new board. Even the longboard falling over should come down with added weight, but wasn’t damaged anything like this board. When this brand new board hit the ground about 1/5 of the rail was completely shattered from the impact of the board simply falling over. That shouldn’t happen.
It rides like shit, it’s made like shit, and it’s not enough foam despite what the shop manager Jordy at Suncoast Surf Shop said. I’m really disappointed with it. Joe Nuzzo needs to make some changes.

The Surf’s Up Surf Report :
Beach re-nourishment continues on the long time surf spot Upham, a spot that was once a point-like wave that wrapped around the artificial structure in place to hold up the touristy building’s proclaimed front yard. Sand being pulled from offshore is being pumped into the beaches. Rocks are being piled up on the beach around a rock placeholder. It’s a beach project like no other. Only like the previously identical one at Honeymoon Island, of course. What should you think of all this? Continue reading Surf’s Up Surf Report: 5:30pm, Thursday at Treasure Island
