Most shop employees are great, but their job is to move inventory, not design a long-term plan around your body, risk profile, and surf goals.

The Bonus
1:1 Strategy Session
Gear Concierge gives you the structure. The private session is where we slow down and look at your specific setup.
We go through your boards — what you’re riding, what you love, what feels too small, what feels too big — and work off of that.
In this session, we will:
- Walk through your current boards and identify which ones to keep, sell, or replace.
- Get Bianca’s recommended ideal dimensions for your next daily driver and step-up.
- Choose the wetsuit and impact gear that match your local conditions and risk tolerance.
- Leave with a clear written summary of ‘Next Gear Moves’ so you can order with confidence.
Limited 1:1 Spots Per Month
Bianca opens only 6 Gear Concierge spots per month to protect focus for current surfers.” “When this month’s spots are full, you’ll join the waitlist for next month.
Stop Making These Expensive Gear Mistakes
Gear Concierge Focus
What Most Surfers Do
✓
Start with a decision framework for evaluating gear that matches body, waves, and goals.
X
Buy whatever is trending or what a friend/shop recommends.
✓
Choose gear that supports the nervous system so wipeouts feel more manageable and recovery is quicker.
X
Focus only on board performance and ignore how equipment ramps up stress and anxiety.
✓
Assess hold-down safety margins: leash thickness, attachment points, and break-risk in real world situations.
X
Choose the thinnest leash possible because it "feels lighter" and hope it doesn't snap.
✓
Dial in thermoregulation to preserve energy (wetsuit fit, layering, sun and wind protection across seasons).
X
Just "get a wetsuit that fits" and then wonder why they gas out early or shiver between sets.
✓
Build a travel-ready gear plan tailored to destination, swell, and contingency scenarios.
X
Pack based on guesswork, then arrive over-gunned, under-gunned, or missing key safety pieces.
✓
Create a long-term ear health strategy with protection and simple post-surf hygiene.
X
Skip ear protection, deal with infections or early surfer’s ear, and lose water time to avoidable issues.
✓
Continually re-check gear against current fitness, age, and confidence level to keep surfing sustainable.
X
Stick with what used to work and assume declining sessions are “just getting older.”

This isn’t just for Mavericks days. Everyday gear decisions — board volume, leash, suit, fins — have a massive impact on how fun and safe your average session feels.
The goal is not to buy more gear, but to stop buying the wrong gear. For most surfers, this pays for itself by avoiding just one bad board or suit purchase.
