The trucks should be sold in pairs by default.
Translated reviews
Response from HawaiiSurf
Hello Nicolas, We are sorry that offering trucks individually does not suit you. We chose to operate this way to give some customers who only want to change one truck the opportunity to buy just one. The entire Hawaiisurf team wishes you a good day.

Information problem. During the purchase, 5 sites are offered for click & collect. In the confirmation email of availability, ZERO reminder of the address or order number. On the site, there are only 4 listed addresses (mine was the 5th obviously, untraceable!)
And when I finally found my package, the friendliness of the sellers, managing dozens of pickup sites, was terrible…
The products themselves are okay, but the customer experience was awful.

Some navigation bugs like errors after using the back arrow.
Little information on products in stock in physical stores
The site indicated a size 44.5 on the ordered product (only size available) and finally the product received is a size 44

Response from HawaiiSurf
Hello,
Unfortunately, a labeling error led to the delivery of the wrong size.
Our teams have done their best to resolve this issue as quickly as possible and process a refund for your order.
Hoping you are satisfied with our service.

Some modifications need to be made to the filter system that forces you to start all over again when returning. Otherwise, overall nothing to say.

As for the site, there is nothing to complain about. However, the fact that Hawaiisurf works with GLS for the carrier is really a negative point...
The box I received was really very damaged... Fortunately, it wasn't fragile. But it's no surprise that it was damaged, I saw the delivery person throw a package on the ground (not mine) to find my box... And I have already had broken packages with this carrier...
Also, I find it unfortunate to have to pay for a return... It's a practice that is becoming less common and it's a major weak point. I will pay more attention in the future...

Response from HawaiiSurf
Hello,
We are sorry for this incident with this delivery person and will not fail to report this problem. We collaborate with different carriers to offer a varied offer tailored to our customers' needs. Regarding return fees, we have chosen to prioritize a team of passionate specialists and a local and free customer service rather than offering free returns. We still thank you for your very constructive remark.
Hoping to see you again very soon.
Have a good day,

Delivery on time. However, for the purchase price for a board without trucks (86 euros) we would like to have a grip properly applied... mine is completely crooked. This is the first remark I got from a non-skater when he saw the board..
Translated reviews
Response from HawaiiSurf
Hello,
Thank you for excusing us for this inconvenience, we strive to provide the best possible service and to make the cleanest setups possible. However, it can happen, during peak periods, that the grip is not applied perfectly by our assemblers, who have to deal with a large volume of orders. Please feel free to contact our customer service by phone or at [email protected] so we can find a solution!
The whole team wishes you a good day.

Hawaiisurf chose GLS, which is the worst delivery service existing (look at the ratings of the GLS relay in your city on Google maps you will see). I didn't realize it was GLS when I ordered. So I obviously didn't receive my order: they simply do not deliver. They leave the package at their agency pretending it's an incorrect address. Choosing GLS is choosing the cheapest service possible but the worst for customers.
Translated reviews
Response from HawaiiSurf
Hello, we offer delivery via GLS, of which a very large number of customers are satisfied. Please note that you also have the option to choose Colissimo delivery to your home or in a relay point. We will contact GLS to resolve the issue and ask them for a delivery. We apologize for the inconvenience caused. The entire Hawaii Surf team wishes you a good day.

I was delivered quickly, well done GLS!
However, the board (drop trough) "Flying Wheels Helmet 38.5", had already been mounted before being sent to me bare.
It is damaged at the road side mounting holes. It shows marks from the washers that were supposed to hold the truck before. With residues of grip embedded (grip that presumably went through the board during the original installation).

Order processing and fast delivery.
However, no flexibility for returning a barely used product (wrong size) knowing that a more expensive purchase was suggested for replacement... Choose wisely before ordering or you will have the product on your hands...
Translated reviews
Response from HawaiiSurf
Hello, you tried a pair of skates in the street for 20 minutes, despite a message from us clearly stating that we do not accept returns of skates that have already been used. We are flexible on returns as long as the returned product has not been used and shows no signs of use. However, skate wheels get marked very quickly, and we cannot resell a product showing any signs of wear, no matter how minimal. We remain at your disposal and wish you a good day.

The size of the item is too large despite checking the measurements in the reference table. Package reception disappointment: original box completely crushed as it was simply covered with a black plastic film. Waiting for approval for return. An ordering, fitting, and return service would be appropriate in the Paris 14 store when the desired items are not available in-store.

A bit long since I never received an email that was supposedly sent to change the shipping method... But after an explanation over the phone, the product arrived the next day. That said, the carrier GLS is below everything. My package was thrown over the fence crushing my hedge of shrubs. Not to mention that anyone could have picked it up before I got home.

After a delay in the delivery of my skimboard, customer service took charge of my situation after I reported the problem. After a few steps, I finally traced my board which is very nice. Quality product, attentive customer service but delivery needs to be reviewed. I might be the exception...

Very disappointed with the delivery! This is the second time your delivery person has done this to me: delivery to a different pickup point than the one requested. Not having a vehicle, I do not choose my pickup points at random, and for no reason or explanation, I was surprised to learn via SMS that the package was at another pickup point, which is obviously not easy for me to access! I tried to complain on their site, and they asked me to send a paper letter by post.... ridiculous! I advise you to review your very disappointing delivery service.

Product as described, pleasant phone reception, unfortunately delivery was not as expected: although delivery was scheduled at home and I was present all day, the delivery person dropped the package at a pickup point! A somewhat careless attitude, which may have suited him but the contract was not respected. For your information, the provider was GLS which I do not recommend, while the site Hawaisurf.com is impeccable.

Lack of coordination with your carrier who did not receive the message with the phone number I provided and that you assured me over the phone you had transmitted. Moreover, this Thursday, August 20, you also told me over the phone that the delivery was for Monday 24 and the delivery person came Friday morning the 21. Otherwise, the board arrived in good condition.
Translated reviews
Response from HawaiiSurf
Hello, the carrier was informed on Thursday, August 20 of your new number. It is unfortunate that he did not notify it and we thank you for your feedback so that we can pass the information on to them. Regarding the delivery, it is indeed between 4 to 7 working days for surfboards. The maximum delay was therefore Friday, August 24. We thank you for your interest and remain available for any other questions.
Best regards,
The Hawaiisurf team.

The order was indeed delivered within the allotted time but delivering a pair of Oakley's, even on sale, in a soft plastic pouch is just ridiculous: the pair arrived -miraculously- intact but the box was completely crushed... needs to be reviewed...

The order was processed and shipped quickly, maybe too quickly since a sole was missing (essential for good balance in roller skating). The information was quickly received by customer service, but the sole took more than a week to arrive. The complete product is of very good quality.

I only give 3 stars because I paid for home delivery because I am disabled. However, the delivery person did not bother to deliver to me, he dropped it off at the relay point. I am looking for a solution to retrieve my package before it goes back.

Product meets expectations and fast shipping by the company, but there was a problem with the GLS delivery person who is definitely not up to par. So as long as GLS handles deliveries, I will not order from this site again.
