Softboards Australia Pty Ltd has been producing surfboards in Australia since 1999. The latest models have extra foam on the deck to take impact from beginners standing on them and nose bumpers to stop de-lamination from nose bumps and heavy nose dives. The boards are constructed from A-grade polyethethylene with a high density slick bottom, non rash decking material and soft fins. All materials are heat laminated using no glues, meaning the boards last longer as glues break down in salt water and through sun exposure.
