Surfboards are generally made of glass fiber and carbon fiber materials. Nowadays, high-end surfboards prefer carbon fiber for the following five reasons: Lightweight. The weight of carbon fiber is one fourth that of steel, which is even lighter than glass fiber. Ordinary glass fiber surfboards weigh about 15 kilograms. People who go to the beach to play naturally hope that the lighter the weight, the better. Carbon fiber surfboards solve this problem very well.

Surfboards are generally made of glass fiber and carbon fiber materials. Nowadays, high-end surfboards prefer carbon fiber for the following five reasons:
Lightweight. The weight of carbon fiber is one fourth that of steel, which is even lighter than glass fiber. Ordinary glass fiber surfboards weigh about 15 kilograms. People who go to the beach to play naturally hope that the lighter the weight, the better. Carbon fiber surfboards solve this problem very well.
High strength. The strength of carbon fiber is four times that of steel. As is well known, the impact force of waves is great. If the strength of a surfboard is too low, once it is damaged by force, it not only cannot experience the joy of sports, but also seriously threatens people's personal safety.
Corrosion resistance. In addition to oxygen and hydrogen, there are also chemical factors such as Cl, Na, Mg, S, Ca, K, Br in seawater, which are alkaline. If a surfboard is immersed in seawater for a long time, it will corrode completely. Carbon fiber has stable chemical properties, acid and alkali resistance, corrosion resistance, aging resistance, and long service life.
Good balance. Surfing in the sea, one's own driving skills are crucial, and the balance of the surfboard is also important. Carbon fiber has strong seismic resistance and good balance performance, and there is little difference between standing on it and standing on the ground.
Clever design. Personalized customization of carbon fiber surfboards can be designed into various styles to meet the needs of different users. For example, folding, combination, long board, short board, gun board, soft board, floating board, paddle board, etc. (Our company provides materials such as carbon fiber and glass fiber)
