I’ve come here to purchase my a couple boards for my daughter and I and out paddles along with out other accessories. Love this place… They replaces a leash that I was playing rough with in a surf and without question, gave me a brand new one. Which by the way, this V3SL leash has been the most durable I’ve had. Thanks you, guys b

Best price by over $ 200 on the iSUP I had decided on. Plus the price included a nice paddle upgrade. I emailed for advice on my first SUP and received a quick reply with just what I needed. Ordered online and was surprised by how quickly I got an email telling me it was shipped but even more surprised when they called to tell me they sent it! Nice touch, guys. :) On my porch 2 days later — and I’m off to the beach. Great service!

I went back during the week and talked to one of the guys here. He was nice and full of information(which would garner 5 stars), however, the selection is very limited(minus one star) and there is no try before you buy or demo option(minus another star). They have their own line of boards(Ve5yl) that look great, but until you ride it– you don’t know. They also have a lower– end brand(thick board) that I wasn’t interested in purchasing. I want something that doesn’t ride like a log. I was also looking for a rack for my car and the guy kept trying to push me towards a cheap foam rack that would strap on my car and eventually ruin the weatherstripping. I wanted a «real» rack for my car and was ready to throwdown the money. He told me I didn’t need it and kept trying to push me towards the cheaper option. What??! It’s nice that they have an in-house brand. And I’m glad other people are happy with the boards here. I’ve been paddling for over 5 years and am a but more particular about what I wanted. Ended up buying at SUP to You in Laguna. Lots of different makes and you can test drive multiple brands. EVERYSUP the carry– they demo. I get that it’s a different business model, but when spending $ 1k, I want to know what I’m getting.

Well I bought a 10’6″ Eco bamboo for my wife in July for her birthday, and she could not have been more pleased with it. The 1stSUP into the family and it was a hit. Our friends that have boards took it for stroll and were instantly blown away at how stable, comfortable, and fast that it is. Matter of fact, one them is putting their SUP up for sale to get a Vesl. We recently had a freeway incident with it… And well it didn’t fare so well. We called Jeff, emailed him some photos. His honesty and help was on another level. You can tell that this company wants their customers to be happy with them and the product that they provide. After going over some options Jeff helped us out and we have put in an order for 2 more SUP. We are hooked on SUP and more importantly VESL. Thanks You Jeff and the Vesl team. You guys are great.

Jeff and the boys over at Paddle Surf Warehouse were great to purchase from. My wife and I are new to the sport and they had a ton of great info and were extremely helpful. There customer service was top notch and I will be recommending them to all of our friends and family who are getting into SUP.

Awesome boards and service – as a first time SUP purchaser, I was happy to find a local business that I felt comfortable with. I called first and then went to the warehouse the next day to purchase because they give an even better deal to locals when they don’t have to ship the boards. I shopped around online a ton before deciding to buy boards from Paddle Surf Warehouse – great prices on quality boards and in the end they delivered them right to my door! Couldn’t ask for much more than that, right?

Five stars doesn’t even cut it! My daughter bought her first paddle board and I drove with it in my car for two hours to get to Newport Beach. It was very stressful having it in my car. A friend recommended that we check out the Paddle Board Warehouse and ask for Michael. He is an amazing guy. He immediately took my stress away. He set us up with pads, a cover bag, lockable strap, paddle, and extra gear. He went out to our truck and gave us a lesson on how to handle the loading of such a big board. He was patient and really took the time to help us. He made out trip — instant relieve. Great company… Great help… Great guy! Thanx Michael!

We purchased a used board and the guys at the shop where super friendly helpful. Not only did they give us a good deal they through in a paddle for free. My wife is 4 months pregnant and we have a 15 month and are on a tight budget and appreciate the good deal and paddle. It is important to my wife to feel happy and healthy and riding the SUP board around the bay does that. We will refer any and all business to you. Thanks The Hensel Family

Great local company that isn’t there to give you some lame sales pitch. They are extremely knowledgeable and will answer any question you have. I’m a beginner to SUP so it was great to be able to ask all kinds of questions which I highly recommend doing. It took me almost a month to research different places etc and decide. They want to make sure you’re happy and comfortable with your purchase. They also have great deals and pricing compared to other SUP shops. Only thing I wish was that I could’ve done a demo on the board I wanted so 4.5 stars. If you’re shopping around I recommend checking them out. If you plan on stopping by later in the day closer to closing time give them a call first. I did as I had seen previous reviews about closing early etc. Michael and Jeff you were awesome and so helpful, I can’t wait to use my new board!

Bought 2 boards from here. Friendly, knowledgeable staff that didn’t try to sell us on more expensive boards than we needed for recreational beginners. We’ve loved the boards and highly recommend!

These guys are awesome! I came in a few days ago to check out the boards and got to talk to Mike and Jeff. Both super nice and knowledgable. I wasn’t ready to purchase a board quite then but I came back today and finally did it. Jeff was helpful with thinking about storage solutions as well. He was at my house less than an hour later with the board– hurray for free delivery! I’m super excited to go out on my board tomorrow! Thanks for everything guys!

THEABSOLUTEBESTAROUND — will be back for any SUP needs. My boyfriend did extensive research around Orange County, visiting store after store after store and decided(very rightfully so) that the Paddle Surf Warehouse not only had the best price/deal, but most importantly the best service. Jeff, the owner, is extremely knowledgable and helpful. I knew exactly what I wanted, 10’6″ seafoam green board, easy! My boyfriend on the other hand received so many different opinions on what size he should get, mostly based on the typical height/size factor. Jeff took the time to explain the pros/cons of each size, and that in the end, he recommended the 10’6″ — a greater challenge for a very in-shape boyfriend, easier storage for our small Peninsula house, to make it easier for me the not-as-strong girlfriend to keep up ;) We were also struggling with the storage options; we wanted to keep the boards inside our tiny place, and no one at Home Depot or friends took the time to brainstorm creative alternatives than hanging the boards from our ceiling. Jim offered up a handful of suggestions, the winning wall option works perfectly in our cozy home. Jeff offered up deal after deal — on top of the 2-board deal the warehouse already offers. We left the shop so happy with our new purchases, but more so just so happy with the all-around positive experience with Jeff and his team!

I don’t normally write reviews but because of my recent buying experience with Paddle Surf Warehouse I felt I needed to thank them for their amazing customer service. Michael, Jeff, and the crew are extremely knowledgeable due to their years of experience. After doing some research online I decided to make the 35 mile drive from my house to the Costa Mesa store with the plan in mind of buying a 10’6″ VESL all –around based on what I thought would suit me the best. The guys at PSW suggested I go with the 11′ but I already had my mind made up on the 10’6″. Well in the next couple weeks I took the board out twice and realized that the 11’0″ would have been the way to go since I was venturing further out beyond the breakwater than I initially thought I would be. I contacted Michael via email and explained to him my situation asking if there was something we could both agree to in swapping boards. He said to come on back and that we could certainly work something out. Well they most certainly did and I went home happy and with a beautiful 11′-0″ VESL Bamboo Series Eco Board. Their customer service definitely exceeded my expectations. I will definitely be returning here in the future for any of my SUP needs. Thanks again PSW! Dan

We could not be more thrilled with the equipment selection and level of service we received. No matter your skill level or the amount of questions or time you need to make a decision, Jeff, Michael and the rest of the staff were outstanding to deal with. I wish more traditional surf shops were as enthusiastic about getting customers into the water on the right equipment for them. Just a very honest and down to earth shop that will be getting all our SUP and prone paddling business going forward.

Michael, Jeff and the Crew were great. Michael was super patient in my barrage of questions about the variables that affect the sort of paddling I do. Super helpful and knowledgable. No joke. They were having a sale on Demo 404 boards(14 footers and 12 footers). All of the things Michael told me were true about the board I purchased from them. I took it out on a maiden voyage into the open water near Long Beach and it was WAY more stable in the open water than my other board. Hands down a better ride. Don’t forget that they have their own house brand: V3SL. Pretty good looking stuff. When I was in there, I overhead another customer talking to them about the insane package deals PSW has right now for V3SL boards and paddles. That guy was stoked on the deal he got. I too was stoked on the deal I got. Note that they may close a bit early on Sundays if the traffic is low in the store. It’s in the back parking lot. Don’t half step. Definitely ask them questions. They are there to help. It will help if you tell them the type of terrain in which you plan on riding.

This is the best deal on a SUP in all of SoCal. I did a month of research before committing to buying a board, and I settled on Paddle Surf Warehouse because of the deal on VESL boards. Both Jeff & Mike were extremely pleasant & helpful, and allowed me to demo the board down the street on the Harbor. It was well worth the 1.5hr drive in morning traffic to trek all the way to the OC to buy a board. I’m super stoked about my VESLSUP and will recommend PSW to any one I meet looking to buy a great affordable board. Thank you guys!
