test a roode board on location

Get ready to be hooked

Experience how smoothly our boards ride and how playful they respond to every movement. Designed to be forgiving yet powerful, they let you progress with confidence in all conditions. When the wind picks up, hold your edge as long as you dare and release into a clean, explosive pop that takes you to new heights. Discover the balance of control, comfort and performance that makes ROODE boards stand out on the water.

Take a ROODE board for a test ride!

We have a small but growing number of test locations where you can try our boards on the water. Click here for the current spots.

Some of our boards are available through ROODE Local Riders, local riders who are willing to lend their board for a short test session. Availability depends on location and rider schedule.

Our test network is still in its early stages. If you know a spot where a ROODE board should be available for testing, let us know.

Test a ROODE board at your home spot

If you're located in Europe, we can ship a test board directly to you. ROODE Boards always covers at least 50% of the shipping costs. You only pay the other 50% upfront. If you decide to purchase a board after testing, we’ll take care of the remaining half as well, meaning shipping ends up being fully on us.

This way, you can try the board at your own local spot, on your own time. Boards are shipped in protective packaging with return instructions included. Complete this form to request a test board.

Availability depends on stock and current test demand.
