Ok, everyones going through this economic slump and its looks like were not even half way through it!
Talking to a friend the other day about SUP’S we decided the sport will struggle with brands selling boards for extortianate prices due to the weak pound against dollar and Euro. A certain Hawaiin SUP brand has board prices double what they were 8 months ago.
Here at Gower SUP we are here to help! – We have GONG boards in stock at great prices in sizes 9’3, 9’11, 10’2, 10’8 . starting at 576 pounds.
Fancy a go, give us a bell! it really is the sport to try this summer and best of all its Great for you. Imagine those balmy summer evenings crusing over flat glassy water or paddling into your first wave on a clean summer swell at your local beach.
