Hi all have been looking at entry level SUP board packages and have narrowed it down to 3 deals..
Ben Buckler Board 10' 6" package deal
Byron Lines 10'6" package
Australian Waterman 10' 6" package deal these are all rounder starter deals that come with carbon paddle,bag and leg rope ranging from 1300- $1500.just wanted to know any ones thoughts on the boards etc.. Will mostly be used in flat water but will surf smaller waves down the track
Seen both Byron lines an the Australian Waterman,nice stable first boards and can't go wrong with them with a 12 month warranty
I ain't seen the Ben Buckler sup to comment on those boards
Contact Sam @ Wind Surf Snow..9971 0999
He had some crazy good package deals prior to Xmas including board & paddle...and they were the name brands like Naish which hold their re sale value better than the smaller brands..
Hi Altynator,
I run Ben Buckler Boards and I thought I'd try to help you with your board decision. For entry level boards, the other 2 brands you mentioned seem pretty good, so it comes down to design aesthetics and customer service.
At BBB, we design and make retro themed boards that surf well for beginners and also look awesome on your living room wall.
If you're near Sydney you can test ride our boards at OZ Sup in Rose Bay or check them out in SurfWorld at Bondi Beach.
We give a 12 month replacement warranty on our new board packages too.
At BBB we're making boards and building our little Aussie brand for the love of it, so we value each and every customer and are always on the look out for your feedback.
I hope that helps,
Ben.
