Covered Up carries a wide variety of boards from classics models to the newest in carbon fiber technology. When selecting surfboards we have taken into account the local waves that the gulf offers. High performance models, retro styles, everyday thrusters, as well as hybrid shapes and longboards for beginners or those who just want to enjoy the glide of a bigger board are all available at Covered Up. The latest shapes and models from Aviso, Cole, Spindrift, and Xanadu are available at Covered Up; if we don’t have the board you are looking for in stock we can special order it for you.
Covered Up has been fortunate enough to be named the premier Aviso surfboard dealer in Texas. Aviso designs carbon fiber/foam composite surfboards that are some of the most technologically advanced surfboards available with incredible strength and durability while still being lighter than your average foam board. Aviso offers numerous models from a wide variety shapers including Lost, Rusty, T. Patterson, Donald Takayama, Cole surfboards, Surf Prescriptions, Dale Velzy, Pearson Arrow and even a Titus Kinimaka stand-up paddle board as well as many more. www.avisosurf.com

We are also fortunate to add locally-based shaper Jeff Pollock and his Spindrift surfboards to the shop. Spindrift originated on the east coast but recently moved to the Corpus Christi area. Jeff has a great talent for shaping thrusters that are ideal for the Texas Gulf coast conditions while also offering retro designs, longboards, funshapes, single fins, quads, and skateboard-enthused shapes. Make sure and visit his website to check out all the board he has to offer. www.spindriftsurfboards.com
Xanadu is a company that has established itself as a leader in the surfboard design industry. Head shaper, Xanadu, started shaping boards at the young age of 15 but decided to put his shaping on hold to travel the world and learn more about waves and boards. Xanadu attributes much of his success to taking this time off and learning about waves and shaping before establishing his name. Once he returned to the shaping bay Xanadu began shaping surfboards for some of the best surfers in the world including: Brad Gerlach, Lisa Anderson, Benji Weatherly, and many more. Covered Up will offer numerous shapes and sizes from the Xanadu arsenal; as with all of our surfboards, anything not in stock can be special ordered. www.xanadusurfdesigns.com
