At Freedom Wave Shop, we know that when you’re stoked about new surf gear, you want it yesterday. That’s why we’ve streamlined our delivery process to get your boards, wetsuits, and accessories to your local break as fast as the offshore winds blow.

Our Shipping Philosophy

Just like choosing the right board for the conditions, we match every order with the optimal shipping method. Whether you’re a weekend warrior needing a new boardbag before your coastal getaway or a pro surfer stocking up for competition season, we’ve got your delivery covered.

Shipping Options Tailored for Surfers

Standard Express (Recommended for Time-Sensitive Orders)

  • Carriers: DHL or FedEx – the go-to choices for surf shops worldwide
  • Delivery Time: 10-15 days after dispatch (often faster for coastal regions)
  • Cost: Just $12.95 – less than the price of a post-surf acai bowl
  • Best For: When you need that new shortboard for an upcoming surf trip or replacement fins before the swell hits

Free Global Shipping (For the Patient Wave Rider)

  • Carrier: EMS – reliable service with full tracking
  • Delivery Time: 15-25 days after dispatch
  • Cost: FREE on orders over $50
  • Best For: Seasonal gear prep, non-urgent accessories, or when you’re stocking up for the year

What Happens After You Click “Buy”?

  1. Gear Check (1-2 days): Our surf techs personally inspect every item – no dings allowed before you even paddle out!
  2. Packing: We use surf-industry standard packaging – reinforced for boards, waterproof for wetsuits
  3. Dispatch: You’ll get tracking info faster than you can wax your board
  4. Customs Ready: All international paperwork handled – we’ve shipped to every surf destination except Antarctica

Pro Tips From Our Shipping Crew

  • Order by Wednesday noon (Crofton time) for same-week dispatch
  • Combine orders – surfboards ship free when ordered with other gear
  • Remote surf camp? Email us first for special shipping arrangements

No-Worries Returns

Changed your mind about that fish board? No sweat. You’ve got 15 days after delivery to initiate returns (some exclusions apply for hygienic items like wetsuits). Our crew will walk you through the simple process.

Final Thought: We treat every shipment like we’re sending gear to our own surf crew – because in the global surf community, that’s exactly what we’re doing. Now get out there and chase those swells – your gear will meet you there!
