A surfboard is the most important piece of equipment in surfing. Boards are usually hand shaped by professionals out of foam and then covered with a fibreglass coat. There are many types of surfboards. Some of the most common ones are shortboards, the most popular type with 3 fins, and longboards, with rounded noses and a single fin.
