From Our Warehouse to Your Local Break

Here’s what happens after you click “checkout”:

  1. Order Processing (1-2 days): Our surf-savvy warehouse team carefully picks and packs your gear with the same attention we’d give our own boards.
  2. Dispatch Notification: You’ll receive a confirmation email with tracking details when your order ships from our Southampton HQ.
  3. In Transit: Your surf essentials are on their way via your chosen carrier.
  4. Delivery: You’ll get a final notification when your package is about to arrive.

Pro tip: For surf trips, order at least 3 weeks before departure to allow for shipping and any unexpected delays.

International Surfers Take Note

While we ship to most countries (excluding some remote areas in Asia), international customers should be aware:

  • Customs fees or import taxes may apply – these are the responsibility of the recipient
  • Delivery times may be extended during peak holiday seasons
  • Some large items (like surfboards) may have additional shipping restrictions

Not Quite Right? Easy Returns

If your gear doesn’t perform as expected (or if you simply changed your mind), you’ve got 15 days from delivery to initiate a return. Here’s the lowdown:

  • Items must be unused and in original packaging
  • Return shipping costs are the customer’s responsibility
  • Refunds processed within 5 working days of receiving returned items
