Why Choose a Soft Top Surfboard?
Softboards are designed to make learning easier and safer.
• Stable and easy to paddle
• Softer deck reduces impact
• Catch waves earlier and more easily
• Perfect for beginners and surf schools
They are also a great choice for experienced surfers who want a fun board for small or slow waves.
If you're progressing, you may want to move into epoxy surfboards.
Choosing the Right Size
The right board size depends on your weight, experience, and confidence in the water.
• Kids → smaller softboards (5’0–7’0)
• Beginners → larger boards (7’0–9’0)
• Progressing surfers → fun shapes and hybrids
If you’re unsure, our team can help you choose the right board for your level.
Buy Soft Surfboards in Phuket
Buying a surfboard in Phuket allows you to see the board in person and avoid expensive international shipping.
Many surfers choose to buy a softboard after a few lessons so they can continue practicing on their own.
