If you have lived in the San Francisco Bay Area long you already know that October and November are some of our best weather months we have. As the strong winds and fog banks of summer fade away the paddling only gets better so let 101 Surf Sports help get you on the water and Stand Up Paddleboarding.


First up this Saturday September 22nd is Starboard Stand Up Paddleboards for a totally free demo day. From 9am to 2pm we will have nearly the full line of Starboard SUP's in the water and ready to ride. From Stand Up Paddleboards made for Fishing to top of the line Carbon Race boards we have a deep selection of Starboard SUP's to choose from. Anyone who purchases a Starboard SUP on the demo day will receive a 10% discount on the board and any other purchases storewide.
