Dacane Surf Shop keeps surfers cresting liquid curlicues all year long with top-notch wave-taming equipment. Surfers of all skill levels can stay passionate and active during winter’s yearly stay and skim the Atlantic with impressive balance or limb-flailing headstands on boards ranging in size from 6’8” to 9’6”. To ward off winter chill, riders suit up for sea carving in hooded wetsuits available for men, women, and children. A soft rack for placing boards on the roof of the car is also included in package, obviating the need to fit the board inside the car or get it a ride with a passing flock of seagulls.
Dacane Surf Shop
Through trials and tribulations, Dacane Surf Shop owner Lance Moore has always strived to provide the best opportunities and gear for wave-tamers. Having hatched the shop's first incarnation in his mother's basement and moved on to locations where break-ins and robberies were rampant, he maintained his focus on learning his trade before finally settling in Halifax. Always looking to stay one step ahead of the sport, Lance and his team seek out the most cutting-edge surfing equipment available from reputable designers such as Channel Islands, Santa Cruz, and Watercooled. His instructors customize surf camps and lessons to help mould burgeoning aquanauts of all ages and skill levels, and hip threads from the likes of Quiksilver and Billabong keep them looking the part. The surf shack also sets up adventurists with stand-up paddleboards, skim boards, body boards, and all the accessories needed to coast the whitecaps or add authenticity to an online dating profile.
