NEW Byron 10'6

We stand behind the quality of every composite board we produce. This page outlines our returns policy for transit-damaged goods and our warranty coverage for manufacturing defects.

Returns

We accept returns only for composite boards that have been damaged in transit.

Inspection upon delivery is mandatory.
Please carefully examine the outer packaging at the time of delivery before signing for or accepting your order. Any visible damage to the packaging must be noted on the delivery documentation at the time of receipt.

To be eligible for a return due to transit
damage, the following conditions must be met:

• Damage to the packaging must be documented and noted with the carrier at the time of delivery.
• Photographic evidence of both the damaged packaging and the board must be submitted within 48 hours of delivery.
• Claims must be submitted to your original point of purchase — either your authorized dealer or directly to us if purchased through our website.

Please note:
Returns cannot be accepted for boards where packaging damage was not noted at the time of delivery, or where claims are submitted outside the required timeframe. We strongly encourage all customers to thoroughly inspect their boardupon arrival and not to discard any packaging until the board has been fully examined.

How Ordering Works
The Torquay is built in small batches. The first drop has just a handful of boards in each size. That’s intentional. Every board is produced under the watchful eye of John who has been making boards for more than fifty years. There are no shortcuts, and there’s no warehouse full of stock sitting on a shelf waiting.

Where we can ship
Due to carrier restrictions and cost on oversized composite boards, we can currently only deliver to the following states:
West Coast — California, Oregon, Washington
Northeast — Maine, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts
Southeast — Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina
South — Arizona, Texas

Pre-order
Lock in your board with a 25% deposit. Stock is limited; pre-ordering is the only way to secure your place. Check the estimated ship-out date before ordering so you can plan ahead.

Balance due before dispatch
When your board is ready, we’ll collect the remaining balance before it ships.

Delivery
Your board ships from our US warehouse , no international freight, no surprise duties. Delivery is curbside and requires a signature. We’ll coordinate day and time with you directly.

Next production run: September.
We already have people on waitlist. Pre-order a Torquay now to secure yours before they do.
