Softboard surfboards, also known as "corchopan," are perfect for learning to surf. These boards offer exceptional buoyancy due to their construction with an EPS (expanded polystyrene) core and specific dimensions. Being soft, they are also the safest boards for beginners, making them ideal for children. However, Softboards are also perfect for adults who already know how to surf but want a fun board for enjoying small or poor wave days. That's why many skilled surfer parents share their boards with their children during the learning phase.
You should buy a Softboard surfboard that suits your surfing level and size. We offer a wide selection of Softboards suitable for all levels and sizes. From beginner Softboards to top-brand Softops for experienced surfers. In our blog article titled "Utility and Features of a Softboard," we explain it in detail to help you make the right choice when purchasing your Softboard at Mundo Surf.
You should repair your Softboard surfboard using appropriate products that won't damage your board. We recommend using Solarez Spongerez for Softboards and the Solarez Softboard repair kit for Softops (Softboards reinforced with fiberglass), or any other repairer with an epoxy resin base. It is essential not to use polyester resin as Softboards have an EPS core that is incompatible with polyester resin.
A Softboard is a soft surfboard, commonly known as a "corchopan." They are made with an expanded polystyrene (EPS) foam core and covered with higher-density polyethylene foam. Some Softboards, called Softops, also feature fiberglass with epoxy resin for enhanced performance.
Softboards are the easiest to identify due to the foam material covering them. The deck of the board is composed of soft polyethylene foam, while the bottom is covered with a smooth and glossy plastic. They are available in a variety of colors, shapes, and sizes, suitable for both beginners and experienced surfers.
