New and Used Surfboards: Pros and Cons

Author: Earl of Curl January 26, 2010

Should you buy a used surfboard? If you’re in the market for a new board and aren’t sure whether to go with a new or a used surfboard, here’s a pros and cons list to help you with your decision.

NEW SURFBOARDS:

Pros: They’re NEW, it’s exactly what you want, custom-made even, lasts longer

Cons: Very expensive, not recycling, waste of money if you don’t like it

USED SURFBOARDS:

Pros: Much cheaper, recycling, helping out a fellow surfer, good for beginners, try out different shape w/o buying new

Cons: Been used (up?), harder to find the right fit, might need to be repaired, might not last as long
