Meet the Zipper by Legion of Fun
Not all foamies are created equal.
Families deserve surfboards that actually work — boards that help kids learn faster, last longer, and keep the stoke alive all summer long. That’s why we built Legion of Fun, a family-run surf brand from Seal Beach, California, where we spend our days in the water with our own kids, testing everything we make.
🌊 Why the Zipper Is the Best Board for Beginners
The Zipper is the go-to board for kids learning to surf — fun, forgiving, and built to last. We designed it using real feedback from thousands of young surfers in our surf and boogie camps. Every wipeout, belly ride, and first stand-up helped shape a board that makes learning easy and keeps kids coming back for more.
This board isn’t about who surfs the hardest — it’s about who has the most fun.
🧩 Built for Families Who Want to Be Together
Our story started right on the beach. Parents kept asking us:
“Where can we get a good board for our kids?”
The flashy, name-brand foamies looked great, but they were pricey and often fell apart after a few weeks of real-world use. The cheap ones delaminated fast. So we created something better — a board that families could count on summer after summer.
🛠️ What Makes the Zipper Different
| Feature | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Inner & Outer Tail Reinforcements | Stops cracks and waterlogging — built for long days and heavy use. |
| Stronger Stringers | Keeps the board solid and stable, even after a full season of surf camp or family sessions. |
| No-Wax Deck | Super-grippy, stays clean, and looks bright and fresh without sticky wax buildup. |
| Sealed Construction | Keeps water out for better performance and longer life. |
| Kid-Sized Shape | Perfectly balanced for learning — easy to paddle, stand, and catch waves early. |
☀️ Family-Friendly, Always
You’ll never see booze or dark imagery on a Legion of Fun board.
Our artwork celebrates what surfing should be — joy, sunshine, and time spent together in the ocean.
The Zipper’s clean, colorful designs look just as good in photos as they do in the lineup.
💪 Real-World Tested
The Zipper has been put through years of surf camp testing — not just by a few surfers, but by hundreds of kids every summer. It’s taken the beatings, the drop-ins, the nose dives, and still comes back for more. If it can handle camp life, it can definitely handle family life.
