Surfing accessories can make or break your surfing adventure. Bags, Leashes and Straps provide an additional level of protection, safety and security for your surfboards.
Surfboard Bags
Surfboard bags provide extra protection for your surfboards to prevent unexpected dings during transport.
This is my top recommended Surfboard Bag:
- Dakine Daylight Surf Hybrid Surfboard Bag (Click here for the current price on Amazon) – this is my everyday bag. It works well and fits my board nicely.
Surfboard Leashes
Surfboard leashes are important because they make sure your surfboard doesn’t get washed into the rocks when you wipeout.
This is my top recommended Surfboard Leash:
- Ocean & Earth Surfboard Leash (Click here for the current price on Amazon) – these leashes work great and they last. I bought two of these leashes in 2009. One lasted 6 years before it snapped. The other one worked great for 10 years and then I gave it away to a friend (and it’s still going). They come in all different lengths.
Surfboard Straps
Strapping your surfboard securely to the roof of the car is the most important first step in your journey to the beach.
I have used the following products for many years and they have treated me well and protected my surfboards from flying off the roof!
These are My Top Recommended Soft Surfboard Racks (if you don’t have a roof rack):
- FCS Cam Lock Single Soft Surfboard Racks (Click Here for current price on Amazon) – These racks are easy to install, strong and secure. They come in an easy to carry soft case and you can throw them in your surfboard bag when you travel.
These are My Top Recommended Surfboard Straps (tie downs for roof racks):
- FCS Cam Lock Tie Down Straps (Click Here for current price on Amazon) – There are lots of different tie down straps for sale but I have had the same pair for 5 years and they are going strong. I tie down surfboards & Stand Up Paddle Boards with no problems.
