Third Street Surf shop

Simon from Elemental Surf shop & Steve, testing the Starto's Flex
Surf Expo is the biggest & best trade show for the Surf industry and this year was no different..Yes the economy has hit surfing hard, attendance was down for both exhibitors and attendees making the show feel quieter than past years, that being said it was still a great show. The shops that came out to see out boards were stoked that we were there and they were equally stoked about 2010. For the dealers that are creative, hands on, open to change and run their shops like businesses they will weather this storm without a problem. The dealers that have not been so open to change..for example new technologies, business models, brands, etc. they will most likely take a harder hit. No matter we wish every shop a successful 2010.
We were thrilled to see so many dealers at the show, we want to thank everyone that came out and saw the 2010 line. We also want to welcome aboard our new dealers. 2010 is a big year for Walden Surfboards as we celebrate our 45th year, and we are excited about all of our new models: The "Bambino", Wahine SUP & Strato-flex.
To held ring in the special year we are launching a brand new website, our goal is to have it up by March 1st. Our entire inventory will be online, updated daily.
Stay tuned for more updates!
