About

Von Boogies Garage

Von Boogies Garage is an independent alternative surf shop based in Miami on the Gold Coast — a mix of surf shop, record store, art space and community hangout rolled into one.

We strive to provide:

• Quality but affordable surf gear

• Custom bodyboards and niche surf craft

• Rare records and music culture

• Vintage local surf-shop energy

• Fun over performance hype

• A rejection of sterile corporate surf retail

We stock:

• Handpicked custom bodyboards

• Surf mats

• Handcrafted timber boards

• Softboards

• Art and collectables

• Locally made gear and independent brands

• Records and obscure music discoveries

• Recycled gear

The in-store vibe is very much:
wax, neoprene, old surf mags, underground music, local knowledge, weird boards, and people actually hanging out again.

It’s closer in spirit to old-school independent surf shops and record stores than modern chain surf retail — the kind of place where people come in to talk story, discover music, pick up odd gear, and get advice in the search of fun.

Who We’re Striving To Be

• Alternative but welcoming

• For all abilities

• Community-driven

• Anti-corporate without trying too hard

• Nostalgic without becoming a museum piece

Honestly, the strongest part of this concept is that it has a point of view and personality — something a lot of surf retail lost years ago.

Because the only thing we wanna fix in this garage is people’s smiles.
