Where's a good place to buy a board in OC?

Postby sean » Sun Sep 16, 2007 7:33 pm

Like the title says. I went to the "surf shops" (Thalia St, Laguna Surf, etc) and they generally just have clothing and like 6 boards. What's a place that would have a decent selection?

thx

Huntington Surf & Sport, Jack's Surfboards both at the corner of main & PCH in Huntington Beach.
Ron Jon's at The Block in Orange.
There are more shops, most are located near the beach piers, just not in Seal Beach.
Also there is an American Legion Post on Beach Blvd in westminster that quite often has someone out there selling both new and used surfboards. Play it Again sports also has a decent stock of used boards at their Beach Blvd. location.

there's also a little shop at goldenwest and westiminster in HB, i think it's called luahuna surf co. They fixed up my old (1978) fish (holes in nose and tail and cracks by the glassed in fins) for a pretty good price.
