Jack’s House Oneill Wetsuits.
Boardshop like to keep our fingers on the pulse every day. We spend a great deal of time scouring the web for whats hot, what to wear and sites that impress. Oneill have a fantastic Heritage and a great story of the brands conception.
Oneill wetsuits have really spent some time thinking about an interactive site that draws your attention yet loads quickly. All to often with brands clever sites the page load can be slow. You see what they are trying to achieve by offering something different but it does not always pay off in a way that shows off the brand to its full effect. I have seen this in the past with Snow brand APOs site.
Oneill have nailed it on the head with a real insight into the lifestyle and soul of Oneill. Using fisheye photograhpy the site is fully interactive and interesting to browse around.

Oneill wetsuits was started by Jack O’neill a man who started making wetsuits just so he could surf more. The suits allowed him to go out more when the weather was colder and stay out longer. A fact for you, Jack Oneill wears a patch and damaged his eye surfing. In years past leashes were coiled and springy. One day his board just popped back a smacked him in the face, damaging his eye. Although a tragic story it shows how as a sport develops and grows, injuries occur.
We owe Jack alot! Leashed changed and suits have got better and better.
The Oneill Summer stock fantastic this year, warmer than ever with more crazy features than a top of the range BMW. Although they dont have cup holders……Yet.
How suits and technology have changed. Awesome prices on all our suits. Ideal if your heading off to Maroc, Portugal, France for some September or October sessions
Boardshop have massive stocks of Oneill Wetsuits and our Fall/Oneill winter suits are arriving today. So get ready for the fall. Need help advice or just a chat, call or email us.
If you can’t surf what do you do
In the world today there is only a small percentage of people lucky enough to be able to head off and go surfing whenever they want! Yes I am jealous.
No matter what the weather is doing as long as the swell is good they can follow it and some are lucky enough to travel the world at the same time too.
For the rest of us we have to mix our love of surfing reading about the lastest boards shapes, secret sports, blue waters and boat trips.
Hey thats life and there is always the holidays.
The team here at boardshop understand how you feel and for this reason we are putting together our new Youtube Channel.
