Dan Taylor Surfboards

"Been surfing DT boards since I was 17yo. These boards rip. Are solid af ."

"Craftsmen’s time and advice are their stock in trade. Dan Taylor is generous with his time as well as excelling in artisanship. A beginner surfer, I called Dan with questions about a board he had shaped and that I had acquired secondhand. He patiently listened and gave me needed advice. His response to my inquiring about a brand-new board was to first spend time riding what I had before investing in a new surfboard. Much appreciated that he did not make a sales pitch! Fast forward a couple of years. I just took possession of a new board shaped according to my needs. First time out, I was up and riding every wave (truth be told, I missed the first of about a dozen). To say that I was happy would be an understatement. Dan listened to what was causing me problems, where I was surfing, and my self-assessment as to ability. I catch more waves, maneuver the board better, and because I went down on length, have a board that fits inside my car. My original Dan Taylor…It’s about 10 years old and, other than pressure dings, is in great condition. Speaks well to the quality of Dan’s work. Dan Taylor Surfboards—highly recommended!"

"Dan's been shaping my boards for 18 years, I wouldn't go anywhere else!"

"Got my shortboard there a few years ago on my 40th. The board is solid. Thanks Dan."

"Purchasing a surfboard from D.T. surfboards is like going to a trusted tailor. He will fit you to the surfboard which will be right for you. Beginner level to experienced surfer, everyone can learn something from a visit to his shop. He is a craftsmen, professional, and he cares about the product he sells you. Thank you for 15 years of unforgettable fun under the feet!!!"
