Types of Surfboard Bag

Surfboard bags, like surfboards, come in all shapes and sizes, and it can be hard to know which will be most suitable. We hope the following will help you choose the best bag for your board. Surfboard Sock or Stretch Covers. These woven fabric covers are the most lightweight option at less than 2mm thick. Normally used within a surfboard travel bag, or for safe storage of your quiver in your surfboard rack; their main purpose is to protect your board from light scratches, dust and the sun. Surfboard Day Bags. The most popular bag for daily use, these are lightweight but still relatively thick (5mm); perfect for protecting your board in a car or on a roof rack. These are the most suitable choice for most surfers as they will protect a surfboard in all but airport travel conditions. Multi Surfboard Travel Bags. These are 10mm thick (fitting 2 to 4 boards) offer the most protection and are designed specifically for the rigours of airline travel. Quad surfboard bags often have tough, lightweight wheels in the base for easy transport and extra semi rigid protection at the nose and tail. If you are travelling internationally, they are essential to protect your prized quiver.

How To Size Your Surfboard Bag?

Whether you have a longboard or tiny hybrid, your surfboard bag needs to fit properly to protect your board. To get the right fit a board must easily slide into a bag, preferably with fins on, with minimal movement up, down, or sideways. Surfboard bags are sized for the board they will hold. For example a 6ft 4 Ocean & Earth Barry Basic will fit a 6ft 4 surfboard with fins.
