Questions people ask

4 answered

The Boardroom is held at Del Mar Fairgrounds in Del Mar, CA.

Surfboard shapers, builders, and surf-culture enthusiasts attend The Boardroom.

It suits shapers, builders and laminators most, since the show grew out of the 2005 Clark Foam shutdown as a gathering for the people who make boards, and it centres on a shape-off and talks on surfboard manufacturing. Buyers looking for a broad multi-category trade show, or people with no stake in board craft, will get less from it, because the focus is narrow and mixes in camping, music and beer.

Crowds at an outdoor surfboard show with shapers and builders in attendance usually dress casually, in shorts or jeans, tees and sandals or sneakers, with a hat and sunscreen for time outside at the fairgrounds.
