I currently am living in HK and the SUP community is growing, however it is hard to get boards here... (surprising for an island virtually surrounded by water)

Anyway - does anyone know of a service that would ship boards from Australia up to HK where the cost wont be equal to the price of the board? Looking and new and used boards.

thanks.

Take your pick they are already in your backyard. Check out Alibab.com , careful the site is renowned for dud business set ups.

Wouldn't you do better looking for supply from China or Thailand, where most production boards are made?

Just Sayin...

But if I was manufacturing in Asia, I would be aiming for say 7 boards per day... 200 per month, equating to 2 containers to EU, 2 to USA and 1 to AUS or SAF.

So I'm actually not surprised that supply is short in Asia / Hong Kong.

I can probably pack you up a Tropical Blends 10'5 Fish

Or a Naish 14 Glide... Either would be AUD$1250 plus freight.

My thought was there's probably a dealer in SE Asia that could get one to him faster and at less shipping cost than anyone here could?
