Glasgow shopper surprised after finding surfboards for sale at Springburn Costco

A Glasgow Costco store is looking to tempt city thrill-seekers by selling surfboards for £150.

A member of the public spotted the Gerry Lopez 8ft surfboards on sale at the store in St. Rollox Business Park in Springburn.

The hand shaped foam boards come with an EVA Traction Pad and three fin set-up with fin boxes, as well as an 8ft Dual Swivel Surf Leash.

The person that clapped eyes on the board took to Twitter to share their surprise at the hilarious find, writing: "Costco in Glasgow catering for the needs of all them Scottish Surfers".

A listing on Costco's website notes that the board is a "perfect surfboard for beginners or experienced surfers who are looking to take a great looking board with them down to the beach or on holiday".

Designed and shaped by American surfing icon American Gerry Lopez, the board "can give its users a great all round experience whilst on the water and will ensure that you are surfing in style".

Perhaps the boards will interest those that were spotted surfing up the River Clyde in Glasgow last month, much to the bemusement of onlookers.
