All EPS/Epoxy/dark-colored boards are sensitive to heat and direct sunlight. We always recommend using a white day bag, keeping out of direct sunlight, and never leaving in a hot car. Once in the water, there is no issue, even in warmer climates.
Our 7 stage “Biocraft” system uses patented composites that are less stiff than other carbon offerings and less chattery than other traditional EPS/Epoxy builds. The refined flex patterns give you benefits of other PU/PE offerings without the added weight.
Keeping your board watertight will prolong its longevity. We always recommend taking it to an Epoxy Repair specialist. We include a Basalt/Innegra fiber with your board for larger situations. Smaller cracks can be fixed with regular epoxy resin and fiberglass.
On average, our boards are 2–3 times stronger than a traditional PU/PE surfboard due to composites we are using: EPS, Epoxy, Basalt with Innegra, and Cork.
At this time, we are launching with dedicated sizes and shapes created by our shapers and partners. We trust their long-term knowledge to dictate the size and dimension spreads and optimal curves in all aspects.
We offer a limited 1-year warranty on issues that we would declare a manufacturer defect. If you believe you have a manufacturer’s defect, go to insert warranty page link or contact info@forecastsurf.com

All shipping times vary by destination. Usually, it takes 1–2 days for orders to process and about 5 days of travel time for surfboards and clothing that are currently In Stock.
