MAGIC BOARDS FOR
SURFERS LIKE US

At Puzzle Surfboards we craft surfboards, strapless kiteboards and art pieces born from the same hands, materials and soul. From real-foam wall boards to sculptural clocks and objects, everything starts with the shaping bay — foam, resin, and the search for flow. I’ve been shaping since 2018, inspired by the timeless curves of the ‘60s and ‘70s, built slow and honest — one piece at a time. For those who still believe in craft.
