Father's Day for a surfer?

Question

My husband loves to surf. I know he has everything including a bunch of boards and a paddle board. He surfs in the winter and summer all year long. Can you think of something that maybe is new for surfers or somethng that I can get him for Father's Day? Any ideas will help!

Answer 1

Wow, I wish my wife would buy me something surf related for Father's Day. I think she's still pissed at the $700. board I bought in March.

There are lots of things that I have, or would like to have, but I don't know your hubby, so let's try these on for size:

New rash guard (they wear out, and a new one is always neat to have).

Classic surf print (Like a Leroy Grannis photo - I have his classic shot of Greg Knoll at the pipeline)

A new board bag

Subscription to a surfing mag

A week (or weekend) at a surf resort (with you, of course)

A neat Hawaiian shirt

New boardshorts

A surf 'collectable' (You know stuff like a miniature board with a lamp or clock)

Just FYI, I'm  55 and have been surfing since '66. I have four boards I ride, three I just keep and two collectables (and I'm storing my son's board and his wife's board). My son surfs, my daughter-in-law surfs my son-in-law surfs (my daughter won't go near the water?) and my five grandkids are all at various stages of learning how to surf. So, I hope I gave you at least one good idea.
