4 Reasons Why You Need a Board Sock
For a Wakesurper the only item more important than your board is the boat, so let your board say thanks by storing it in one of the high quality board socks now available. Originally designed with ease, versatility, and durability in mind, these socks are designed with ease, comfort, and flexibility in mind. Unlike standard socks, a board sock is made out of a moisture-wicking fabric that is designed to keep your feet dry. This keeps you dry on those long days at sea or on those rainy days on the lake. Whether you’re a cruiser or a weekend warrior, these socks are designed for comfort and keep you looking sharp.
UV Rays: Whether you’re at sea or on land, the sun can do some damage. As such many beaches and parks have signs posted notifying visitors that sunscreen is available. If you don’t want people walking around with a big, ugly red stain on your face, buy yourself some high quality UV rays protection so that you don’t end up looking like a pumpkin on Halloween! While there aren’t any UVA protection offered in standard board socks, we’ve found that the ultra-violet protection offered by premium boards is great for protecting your feet against harmful UVA rays and will leave them feeling nice and soft.
Nose Design – The unique uv ray nose design that is featured on most of today’s wakesurf boards is a very welcome addition to the board sock world. The nose is designed to direct the airflow going onto your feet, while also preventing any water from getting into your shoes. This helps keep your feet dry and prevents any stinging sensations you might experience when you wakeboard.
