Great price and even better service
I bought a new kite from George today and he price-matched it straight away with another online retailer. He then took the time to open it up with me, talk me through everything and even give me a few pointers on jumping, being a kitesurfer himself.
Really appreciated the knowledge and personal touch - getting the price of an online retailer with the benefit of real in-store service. A great experience, and I wish George and the team all the best for the future!

I had an issue with my SUP board and, after several phone calls and some back-and-forth communication, the Watersports Centre arranged to send me a new board. I was genuinely pleased with how quickly they resolved the issue once everything was clear.
A special thank you to George, who kept me updated throughout the process and was always helpful and friendly in his communication. Good customer service really makes a difference, especially when you are dealing with an issue after purchasing a product.
I’m very grateful to the Watersports Centre for the way they handled this in the end. It was a very good experience, and I really appreciate the effort they made to find a solution for me.
Thank you, George, and the whole team!

Warranty
am extremely disappointed with the customer service at The Watersport Center.
A friend of mine purchased a SUP from this store and is now experiencing warranty issues. Despite having all the required documents, proof of purchase, and everything needed to qualify for a valid warranty claim, the store continues to make the process unnecessarily difficult.
Instead of honoring their warranty obligations and helping the customer, they keep creating obstacles and delaying the resolution. This is very frustrating and not what you would expect from a professional watersports retailer.
A warranty should provide peace of mind, not become a battle. Based on this experience, I would not recommend this store to anyone looking for reliable after-sales service.

Hi Klant,
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. We genuinely appreciate all feedback, whether positive or negative, as it helps us continue to improve our services, which is extremely important to us.
We completely empathise with how frustrating this situation has been for William, and we'd like to reassure you that we have been in regular communication with him throughout the warranty process.
Unfortunately, this has become a particularly complex warranty case. The board was purchased over a year ago, so the claim falls under JP Australia's manufacturer warranty process. Throughout this process, an additional complication has been that JP Australia are disputing that a two-year manufacturer warranty ever applied to this product, which has made the claim even more difficult to resolve.
We were also extremely disappointed that JP Australia did not agree that this issue qualified as a warranty claim, as we had hoped for a much more straightforward resolution for William. We appreciate how frustrating this has been for him, and we have continued to advocate on his behalf throughout the process.
Although we cannot override the manufacturer's decision, we have not simply left it there. We have continued discussions with JP Australia and offered William two potential solutions to help get him back on the water as quickly as possible. One of these was for us to cover the cost of having the board professionally repaired by a reputable SUP repair specialist local to William in Belgium. We await to hear from William as to whether this is a suitable solution. But please be assured that we will continue working with William to achieve the best possible outcome.
Thank you again for sharing your concerns. We remain committed to supporting William and will continue to do everything we reasonably can to help resolve this matter.
All the best,
The Watersports Centre Team

Hallo Michael,
vielen Dank, dass Sie sich die Zeit für diese Bewertung genommen haben. Wir schätzen Ihr ehrliches Feedback sehr, da es uns hilft, unseren Service stetig zu verbessern.
Wir stehen kurz vor dem Start unserer neuen Website. Eine der Verbesserungen, die wir dabei umsetzen, ist eine klare Erläuterung der zusätzlichen Einfuhrgebühren und der anfallenden Mehrwertsteuer, die Kunden außerhalb des Vereinigten Königreichs möglicherweise zahlen müssen. Wir verstehen vollkommen, wie wichtig es ist, dass diese Kosten bereits vor der Bestellung transparent ausgewiesen werden.
Wir freuen uns sehr, dass wir das Problem für Sie lösen konnten, und danken Ihnen herzlich für Ihre Geduld während des gesamten Prozesses. Nochmals vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback – wir hoffen, Sie in Zukunft wieder bei The Watersports Centre begrüßen zu dürfen.
Herzliche Grüße
The Watersports Centre
English Translation: Hi Michael,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review. We really appreciate your honest feedback, as it helps us continue to improve our service.
We're actually just about to launch our new website, and one of the improvements we're making is to clearly explain the additional import charges and associated VAT that customers outside the UK may be required to pay. We completely understand how important it is for these costs to be transparent before placing an order.
We're delighted that we were able to help resolve the issue for you, and we truly appreciate your patience throughout the process. Thank you again for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back to The Watersports Centre in the future.
All the best,

Great service!
George, Em & Tim were super helpful in answering the questions I had about buying my wing. I felt assured that I was going to be happy with my purchase and I absolutely have been!
I swung by the shop, a bit short on time, and it was all ready to go. Tim also posted a pump adaptor for me in super speedy timing.
I really recommend these guys for knowledge, advice and customer service!

Paddle board repair
I called in to ask if anyone could help me with a valve problem on my paddle board. I was met by a very friendly lady who asked me inside. I took my board in and was met by George who sorted my problem out without any fuss. The staff were very friendly and helpful and gave me good advice. I will not hesitate to call back anytime I need help or advice.
