- Look, there are two types of surfers in the world right now: ones who would potentially risk exposure to a deadly virus in exchange for rock-bottom flights to their dream destination, and the rest of us. Assuming you’re in that latter group, you’re going to need to get creative if you want to take a surf trip in the foreseeable future. Fortunately, there’s a mode of transportation that was invented long, long ago that’s perfect for facilitating surf exploration when the restrictions include “no airplanes!” and “stay away from people!”: the Recreational Vehicle.
RVs allow you to explore the stretches of coastline you’ve been meaning to surf, while carrying your bedroom, kitchen, gear shed and bathroom along with you. Doing so keeps you safer, it keeps the locals in the zones you’re visiting safer and it ensures you never have to poop in a bush. Everyone wins - particularly the bush.
The best thing about RVs is that you can rent them pretty much anywhere, including Class Bs, which are the cool adventure vans you keep seeing on Instagram. And just because you’re renting a rig doesn’t mean you can’t make some simple, removable customizations that will make traveling with surfboards and wetsuits easier and less stinky. For some tips and tricks on how to pimp your rented ride, we asked Dana Point surfer and experienced surf explorer Dave Boehne. He’s been working on tweaking his own adventure surf rig for years, and these are his 6 favorite ways to set yourself up before hitting the road.

I’ll keep that in mind the next time I rent a $180k msrp Winnie Revel
this is so helpful for that 0.1% of surfers that live out of maxed out sprinter vans!
.01%
The surfboard rack is very cool and so easy
That wetsuit dryer is such a great idea
You should see the boards this guy shapes, too. Modern maestro!
Best way to dry ur suit is just hang it out the window while driving 80 down the 405
Good stuff!
U R the king of the road , Mate. Just feeeennnnnnnnnnnnntttttaaaaaaaaaaaasticccccccccccccccccc Mate.
Seriously. A garden sprayer on a $175K rig? There is hose hookup in the front (open sliding door) and one in the back.
This shit is ripping. Cause I used to surf and freedive across the bay in the same rig, I used a few of these back in the 80's - '00's. What's with the salty comments? Guy is on point.
Nice ideas 👌 just finishing my £380 fiat ducato campervan probably will cost me £2000 all in you don't need a revel to have a great time
Need a E-Bike Or Skateboard in That Glammping Rig. Right?
I had the Winnebago Revel. It was a piece of junk. Had it for 4 months and hated it. Would never buy a Winnebago RV again. It's a shame they don't sell VW California models in the US.
no one will ever use those "hacks"
Doomer hacks.
none of these are really usefull lmaooo
Yip Wank Wank
The dogs I know dont roll around in $200000 winne-sprinters. They converted their own Promasters and 1985 Ford Econolines. Sorry doode - you might make amazing boards but your tips for trust fund "vanlifer" surfers suck.
