Ordering FAQ

How accurate is the Board Engine for finding and selecting the best surfboard model size for me?

The Board Engine has been developed with our leading Australian and American surfboard shapers to find the most relevant surfboards for your individual needs. The Board Engine scientifically prescribes each surfboard model size based on a complex algorithm that analyses the variables of each surfboard model, connecting them with your user profile. Once you place a surfboard order, your customer profile (weight, height, ability etc) and your surfboard order gets reviewed by the shaper. This is done as an extra precaution to ensure every surfboard ordered on Boardcave.com is right for the customer.

How long will it take for my surfboard to be manufactured?

We are ourselves surfers and know that waiting for a new custom surfboard can be harder than getting barrels at Teahupoʻo. The process for crafting a custom surfboard is not a job you want to be rushed and the factory will always prioritize quality over rushing through high volumes of boards. Times will vary depending on the size, shape and any extras on your board. Some factors that can increase the manufacturing time are artwork, channels, boards over 6’ 5” in length and any other extras. The factories are also limited by their staff and the supply of materials, during peak seasons and pandemics this can lead to some factories having longer than usual lead times. Rest assured that your board is on its way to you.

What Types of payment do you accept?

Boardcave.com is proud to accept Visa and MasterCard. We do not accept cash, cheques or cash on delivery.
