Before we get started, here are a few things to remember:
Pack your board bag tightly. This prevents your board from moving around and getting damaged.
Check “length maximums” for baggage on your flight or train. If you’re taking a longboard make sure that the airline will accept your board. Nothing is worse than showing up at the airport and not being able to check your bag.
Pack light. This will hopefully stop the people at the airport from having to throw your bag as aggressively. You can also leave a little note on the outside of your board bag saying ‘Fragile, Please be careful! Thank you :).'
Bring Roof Straps. You will need two roof straps to attach your board to the roof of a car or taxi.
Pack Essentials. Check out our Surf Trip Essentials collection for everything you'll need for your spring break surf trip!
Now that we have that covered, watch the short video below and follow along with step-by-step instructions to find out how to pack your surfboard! Don’t be afraid to ask for some help. Packing your surfboard is easier with some extra hands!

]]>Mele wore The Hermosa during the last Seea Voyage to Mexico and with no wardrobe fussing or skin sun damage to worry about, she could concentrate on enjoying the fun waves and getting stoked!
Together with a high quality sunscreen (we love this one from Shiseido), the Hermosa helps keep your skin protected from the sun’s harmful rays during those can't-get-enough, all day surf sessions. Currently available in Bandana / Black and the retro-styled White Dots, these latest versions of the Hermosa are here just in time for Summer!
Amanda starts by selecting interesting bits of pictures and text, and cutting them into thin strips. |
Esther, getting down to business with the Elmers Glue |
Arrange the pieces, let them dry, add a coat or two of clear shellack, and you're done! |
The final product, on display at Icons of Surf in Ulvila, CA |
When we first approached Chris and Masa at Surfindian about carrying Seea, they were stoked! A veteran retailer and savvy merchandiser, Chris noted "For something this unique, we really need to showcase it. A custom display would be awesome..." Chris even suggested putting a video screen up on the backside of the display, to keep the late night PB crowd entertained. It seemed like a tall order at the time, but with Summer right around the corner, it was time to step up to the plate!
Took another trip up to the wood graveyard in Orange. Old fence boards can work miracles! Chris from Captain Fin stopped by to help with the finishing touches. |
Our good friend Colt from Voila Press came down with his lovely wife to catch The Mattson 2 and to bring the Seea Lady logo to life! |
Unique display + video screen! Colt and Chris show off the finished product. |
Amanda showed up after a fun session in Cardiff, posed for a photo, then pocket dialed Masa. True genius at work! |
Masa and Chris, stoked! |
Seea x Surfindian Rashguard - available exclusively through Surfindian & Seea! |
