The SBT System
What the SBT system offers you
SBT is a state of the art security product and service designed purposely to protect surfboards, SUPS, wake boards, kite boards, windsurf rigs, skis, snowboards and bikes worldwide when they are with or without you. SBT protects your gear at your local break, home and overseas, in your car, shed, garage, airport, where ever you ride. The concept has morphed into anti-theft, self-insuring system that benefits us all, shapers, retailers and surfers.
Following two years development, Surfboard Tracker (SBT) was born June 2007. Now 09 with the addition of a global insurance partner and some major changes in the technology and system, Surfboard Tracker has been fully upgraded.
The new SBT system is completely web based making it accessible to everyone worldwide. Shapers can build a complete online database for their entire surfboard manufacture, make, model, data, products, dimension, fin systems about their boards. This means that when you purchase your surfboard you will know what exactly the materials were used. This means if your board is lost, broken, or stolen a reproduction can be produced, enabling the production of a replacement board's following there theft and a successful claim.
Its simple, Surfers can confidently activate their boards, giving them direct access to their shaper, while automatically switching on the anti theft and self-insurance system.
Nat Young, super surfer, recently summarised SBT in one sentence;
"It sounds like a really good idea for the post 2008 world we live in"
In the event of having an ACTIVATED board stolen and a successful claim via the SBT system, you will receive a brand new "like for like" replacement direct from your shaper.
