Local internationally known buisness that has been customizng surfboards since 1969. Wavetools is a team of people that have a passion for waves, boards and the surfing lifestyle.
Wave Tools Surfboards was founded by Lance Collins in 1969. Constantly pushing the envelope of high performance surfboard design and never following the latest trend, Lance remains an innovator by simply making surfboards that work better.
During the 80’s it was impossible to go to the beach in Southern California and not see a Wave Tools surfboards. Neon board art dawned by Danny Kwock and other Eco Beach scensters were a beacon of the new school. Everybody had to have a Wave Tools and before long everybody was trying to emulate Wave Tools’ cool look and new school surfboard designs.
The original Wave Tools Shop at 1779 Placentia Ave in Costa Mesa is still open for business. Thanks to RS Elliot, our new shop manager, the Wave Tools shop produces some of the best surfboards in Southern California on a daily basis. The shop encourages drop-ins and has become a fixture in the Costa Mesa/ Newport surf scene.
It is not uncommon to see riders and friends hanging out in the shop talking surf, art and board design. Wave Tools surfboards uses rider feedback, which includes getting surfers like Andrew Doheny into the shaping bay to make there own boards, to fine tune our already progressive shapes. By constantly tweaking and searching for new capabilities in surfboard design Wave Tools insures professional surfers and yourself will be riding boards that maximize fun and progression.
Wave Tools would like to encourage anybody looking for a surfboard that not only works but has a unique flair to stop by the shop and order a board.
