1. A surfboard

Maybe one of the best, if not the best gift you can give to a surfer. We´re talking about his main tool for the job, so every now and then it has to be replaced. In the market we can find an infinity of options. From the most sold surfboards, like the Mini Twin Fin from Asher Pacey, Hypto Krypto or the FireWire surfboards and even initiation boards like softboards, for people that are just starting.

There are infinite possibilities and it all depends on your budget. If you´re looking for a cheap surfboard with good value for money, we recommend the new line of Protech NSP Surfboards. Epoxy boards with distinct shapes like Hybrids, Funboards or Fish with a price of 335 euros. Another good option is the recently arrived Mick Fanning Softboards. Softboards made of epoxy that are bringing the revolution to the market with great models like the Beastie.

2. Neoprene wetsuit

Our second skin in the water, essential for surfing sessions. Just as with surfboards there are a ton of possibilities. If you´re thinking about a winter wetsuit, you should go with one of the 4/3 mm or 5/4 mm that the different brands are offering. If you´re looking for a cheap wetsuit we recommend checking out our wetsuit outlet. The best brands like O´Neill, Billabong, Xcel at the best prices.

The Psycotech from O´Neill, which we´ve had the opportunity of trying out recently here, is a great choice. A hot selling item that gives warmth and comfort. Perfect for this season both as a gift and to fight the cold.

4. A surfskate

This learning tool / fun toy is a new modality of skate that is excellent for this gift giving season since it helps us maintain our surf prowess out of the water.

Designed for long trips where you´re surfboard can get damaged, it fits your surfboard snuggly and you can travel with the comfort of having a protected quiver.

6. Surf leash / Surf fins / Wax

Another good option for Christmas is a surf accessory. Leashes, fins, grips, wax, repair kits for small skits on the board.

A bit ago we´ve had the opportunity of trying out the O&E Premium 6.0 ONE XT that boasts of being the strongest and most durable in the market. Made for daily use, it’s a gift that always be a hit. It doesn´t matter how many you have, it´s good to have more just in case.

7. Poncho / towel

Now that it´s getting colder, and some have the luck of having a surf van that lets you change in comfort inside, ponchos are great option for the rest of us mortals for changing outside. Get one for 37 euros!

Why not get a backpack made especially for surfers? A bag that can fit everything you need for a day in your favorite spot or when traveling when you´re hunting for waves? The O&E Ultimate Surf Backpack is where it´s at when surfers are on their voyage and want to bring their things in a neat way.

We´ve talked on occasion on the importance of working your balance and stability for surfing like in this article. We talked about slack line and indoor boards can improve your surf sessions while also having fun. Indoor surfboards are perfect to train basic board positioning for both surfing and skating. It will also noticeably improve your balance on top of a board. It has a price of 140 euros.
