Sunburnt Mess

The surfshop of surfshops! This little hidden gem was a pleasure to find with super friendly staff and great selection of boards. I was frothing hard and I could not fault the place.

Placed a order this morning and got it this afternoon . Thanks for much for local delivery Pat , So nice in lockdown . Get your hands on a “Pargo “keepCup everyone .

the first thing that struck me when I entered this cute north bondi shop was a random thought about immersive sensory deprivation rooms with modular synthesiser auto generative compositions which end in emerging into chambers of flooded lights of deep gold, reds and terracotta changing like phosphene patterns surrounding the audience member - no floor no ceiling no walls just light to represent the centre of a supernova - something like that. I’d commission a collective of modular rack synthesiser artists to curate and repatch the devices over a 7 day period. repurpose one of the gun turrets up around the north and south heads of the harbour to do this and allow individual experience a cosmic mimesis and lose the parameters of their flesh bag they have lived in.apart from that, this was a cool shop, helpful service and some shred sleds which will set your game apart from the other scrub mullets.5 stars

When you are looking for your extra special board, a different one, something that works, it's great fun and it can challenge you, this is your shop. The variety is huge and the owner is always looking for the next exciting thing. Great shop!

This is how a surf shop should be. Curated, bespoke, detailed, high quality, chilled. Visit and share, they will thrive. WAW handplane from heaven

Pat who runs Sunburnt is a total legend. worked with me over a few weeks, letting me trial boards to find out what worked best for me and getting me to the right result. I couldn't have been happier with Pat's service and the Christenson Lane Splitter I ended up with. Rare to find someone with Pat's dedication and attention to detail in what can be a very 'unit shifting' orientated trade. Thanks again Pat!!

Great board store! Amazing selection of boards you find hard anywhere else. Staff is friendly and can actually surf and understand the science behind boards and shapes.

Super friendly guy. He was very helpful. Cute shop.

The owner pat is true legend.Best board shop is Sydney!!Would highly recommend this place to anyone needing a board or smaller items..
