San Diego 10-27 & 10-28-14?
« on: October 27, 2014, 08:58:52 AM »
Can anybody recommend where to rent an SUS board today and tomorrow?
Maybe even a suggestion on a spot?
I'm at a conference at the Sheraton conf. Hotel and want to escape and catch a wave.

Even an individual?
I SUS on the Gulf Coast and have several boards from 11' down to an 8-10" fanatic.
Thanks all,
JB

Gulf Shores, AL?  Learned to surf those ankle snappers there in... well... way back then.

Good hunting on the board and surf.

I rented the last several weekends from OEX Point Loma and West Coast Paddle Sports. 

For surfing I would recommend West Coast Paddle Sports.  Ask them about local conditions and they will help you out.

They have thinned down the herd some for winter but had a good selection.
didn't even see any junk boards like rental shops typically have bunches of.
I picked a 10' x28" that was about 150L jimmy somebody, not jimmy sticks.
It had an aftermarket fin that really juiced up the turns and was plenty fast to beat the sections that closed out.
They also had a 9' something, with narrow thin rails that I may go back and try tomorrow if I can escape the conference again.
There were a number of shorter boards with way lower volume that did not really suit my weight and a good number of longer wider boards. Call them!

Fun waves today though!
Thanks for the input, it's difficult when you don't know the area and try to find equip and a spot to use it! I hope I can pay it forward to someone visiting my area!
