🇪🇸 Bilbao, Biscay, Spain
Pukas is a surfboard shaping workshop based in Bilbao (Biscay), Spain. It mainly builds shortboard, fish, funboard, mini-malibu, gun, offering handmade custom boards for local and visiting surfers.

To order a custom board, message the workshop with your weight, height, surfing level and the waves you usually surf: with that the shaper can suggest dimensions and volume. Bear in mind a custom board usually takes several weeks, especially in high season. How many litres do you need? Try the surfboard volume calculator.

What boards Pukas makes
- Shortboard: short, low-volume boards built to turn in powerful waves; aimed at intermediate and advanced surfers.
- Fish: short, wide boards with a swallow tail; fast and easy to paddle in small to medium waves.
- Funboard: mid-length boards (7–8 ft): stable enough to learn on and fun enough to progress.
- Mini-malibu: a mini longboard (7–8 ft) with plenty of volume; the usual step up from a foam board.
- Gun: long, narrow boards for big waves, where paddle speed and control matter most.
- Custom: made-to-measure boards: the shaper adapts dimensions, volume and design to your weight, level and local waves.
