Windsurfing & Kitesurfing Malaysia

Where to buy?

Here’s the truth. There is no single *reliable source for windsurfing gear in Malaysia.

Trust me. Been there, done that.

Singapore is the closest where you can find truly exceptional quality, bang for the buck windsurfing equipment. Gear in Singapore are generally cheaper than anywhere else in the world. There’s a few online windsurfing shops in Singapore. Now I’m not here to advertise anybody but rest assured, they are quite easy to find, so google is your friend.

For used market, there is no better place than the Bluefinz’s Marketplace. Keep watching and you’ll find what you’re looking for eventually. Prices are usually very reasonable too.

Lastly, contact this guy PJ. He owns Bluefinz Windsurfing Shop, very friendly and you can trust him for the quality.

Like every other purchase, study what you want to buy, study your seller ( see if he has any good/bad review before) and most importantly, don’t rush into anything.


*not reliable in this context means an organization/person that has any of these issues;

  • Long waiting time / bad communication ~ waiting for a whole week just for a price quote isn’t exactly what you’re looking for
  • Potential to sell overpriced yet battered equipment ~ lack of sellers & availability means they can price it however they want to desperate & uninformed beginners.
  • Potential of getting scammed ~ you should get what you paid for, not less than you paid for
  • Other bad issues that are too general to mention
