Bought 2 love child's 6'4 Bought 2 love child's 6'4, amazing performance and fun, however considering the dimensions of the board, thickness, solid stronger etc, you would think these boards would last. Both I managed to snap within 6 months, haven't snapped any of my short high performance boards, buckled one but that's it in the last 8 or so years. Maybe unlucky, but I doubt it, these are mass produced in China! I would stay clear, spend your money elsewhere..

Gnaraloo Soft Surfboard I purchased the 5'6 softboard from Global Surf Industries for my 9yr old son. The board is very well designed, comes with safe flexible fins for kids which can be swapped out later for regular FCS performance fins. The handle is also good for younger kids who are not able to carry a board due to it's width. The ordering on line as well as shipment went smoothly and I have already recommended this to other friends who are looking for a similar product.

Brilliant to deal with Brilliant company to deal with. Chatted to a really friendly bloke about board selection then after I ordered they got it out here to regional WA within 2 working days! Never had that happen with any online order before. Board arrived all safe and sound and packaged beautifully. i had and email question for them and received a response back straight away. I've never put a review of anything before but this is a definite 5 star crowd.

epoxy fish surfboard from GSI, paddles well, surfs well and I'm enjoying getting back into surfing, My one disappointment is the board arrived with a indent on the bottom, Requires shipping with more protection. ie bubble wrap

Flawed. I was happy to see it shipped safely, and promptly. However...One of the fin boxes does not let the fin sit flush, and it sticks up about 1/8''. This same fin box also has a screw that pushes the fin backwards rather than down, forcing a gap in the front of the base where it inserts into the fin box when tightened. This also surely displaces pressure in ways not meant by the construction. 3 of the 5 fin screws also stripped, one now sticks out. I used the appropriate future fin tools and the screws practically turned to jello. I discovered all of this once already on a trip, deck pad already stuck on the board, preparing for a paddle out...very frustrating moment.
