| Board sock- A good thing to have, the board sock keeps tour favorite board from getting scratched. Scratches can make your board un- rideable when water and sand get into the scratches. |
| Wax- wax helps you stay on your board when the sea is rough. This is extra important for skimboards, as you start off of your board and jump on. Without the wax, you slide right off. |
| BOARDS, Surf Board- This is a good thing to have if you plan to surf. the boards are made of wood, foam and now even balsa wood. They are covered in fiberglass to protect them from rocks and choral. |
| BOARDS, Skimboard- Also a good thing to have if you want to skimboard. These are also made of foam or wood. Like the surfboards, the foam skimboards are covered in fiberglass to reduce wear on the board and to protect it from dings. |
| Shorts- The number one thing to have, surfing naked is not only uncomfortable and unattractive, but it is also illegal in many places. |
| Traction Pad- Traction pads can be put on either skimboards or surf boards. They go on the back of the board to help with steering and staying on the board. Front foot pads can also be bought for added traction. |
| Wax Combs- The combs are used to add texture to the wax you just put on. the comb adds traction. The other side of the comb is used to remove the wax after use. |
