    Hi All

    Does anyone have experience of doing this?

    I like to keep all the boards I buy for future use and others getting into surfing and I really want to post my board home. I've been told to use pipe insultation on the rails and bubble wrap and ply wood too (:confused:)

    I'm probably going to have to send it via ship or delayed air mail as it's cheapest.

    Any suggestions.

    Thanks

    Also you could buy a coffin board bag and pack more than one board in it then sell the bag when you get home.

    Cheers Spacehopper

    They don't operate in Australia for some daft reason but great idea, I already have a travel bag and figured that I'll do the pipe insulation etc and just ship it home via courier I suppose, I did consider shipping but that could take 4 months....

    It might be worth the more reliable route.
