New Surfboards

See the latest boards to land at Thalia Surf Shop in our new surfboards collection. We bring in fresh shapes regularly from the shapers we trust, spanning logs, midlengths, fish, eggs, shortboards, and more experimental outlines. Each board is chosen with our Laguna Beach lineup in mind, so you will find shapes that work in everything from small summer days to punchier surf. Whether you are upgrading your quiver or starting one, this is the first place to look. Stop by the shop to see them in person or browse online.

How to choose a new surfboard

The right board comes down to three things: your skill level, the waves you surf most, and the volume you need to float and paddle well. Beginners and small wave days reward more volume and length, so think a mid length or longboard. Steeper, hollower waves and advanced surfing call for a lower volume shortboard. Our staff surfs these boards at Brooks, Thalia, and Rockpile, so the recommendations here come from the water, not a spec sheet.

Shortboards, fishes, and mid lengths

Fishes and twin fins keep speed through soft California sections, performance shortboards suit punchier surf, and mid lengths are the do everything board most people actually surf the most. Almost every board here takes a removable fin setup, so you can tune drive and release for the day.

Set yourself up

A new board deserves the basics: a leash sized to the board, traction or wax for grip, and a board bag to protect it in the car and on trips. Surfing cool water? Add a wetsuit so you can stay out longer.
