One of our favorites, as well as one of the most popular surfboard slings, is the curve surfboard sling. This sling, shown above, simply wraps around your surfboard allowing hands free carry. It also has a nice pouch to carry anything else you may need. The Curve is one as our favorites as it allows for more than one surfboard carrying. The Curve Sling also available for SUP boards.
