San Francisco’s       Surfing Specialists               1968-2019
Back in 1968 Bob Wise opened a small shop on Wawona Street where he shaped and glassed surfboards for the local surfing community. As surfing grew, Bob began selling boards from some of the world's most acclaimed shapers. Today, our state of the art shop houses hundreds of surfboards, everything from fish to longboards and more wetsuits than you've ever seen.

I am sad to announce that after 51 years in business we closed WISE SURFBOARDS at the end of 2019. The fixed costs of doing business are just too great! And increasing online and direct sales from manufacturers have destroyed the business we once enjoyed. Most importantly I would like to thank our loyal customers and friends who have made it possible for myself and my employees to make a living working in the surf business. Thanks,  Bob Wise
