The store up top you can find a solid selection and variety from the latest surf and outdoor brands with in-season clothes as well as some of previous seasons items on sale. The Board Room down below you can find a vast choosing of the latest and greatest from shapers and boardmakers. In addition they offer a surf camp and private lessons to those trying to get started. Every time I visit I have found the people working to be helpful and willing to engage in a conversation about what I am looking for or helping me find the right fin for my board. It is important to buy local when shopping for a new board, wetsuit, or leash so the surfing community can continue in areas like Newport/Middletown.

From the owner: Allow us to introduce ourselves! Founded in 1996 by Christian Schlebach, Re-Sails was the first in…read morethe market to manufacture sail bags and accessories out of re-purposed sails. Many years in the yachting industry showed a significant amount of old sail being disposed of in the dumpster. Realizing the potential of Dacron in different applications Christian took some of those sails and started designing jackets and bags out of his garage. Two years of sewing at home and doing the boat shows, it was decided that a store in Newport, RI was the next step. Our Shop in Newport is the flagship store with many new products being test marketed. We are also located in Annapolis MD, just before the Naval Academy. With plans for a few more stores located in sailing communities, keep your eyes open for us, we might be neighbors! Custom designed in Newport RI and having 2 state side stores has given Re-Sails the opportunity to become a household name in the sailing industry. We are proudly made in the USA and dedicated to the recycling of sail material and green production. We are able to customize our products just for you so if you have an idea give us a call, we would love to hear from you!

There are also some longboards for anyone who cares as well as surfboards and etc upstairs and even more across the street. Its the closest shop to the first beach skatepark, which seems to be one of the only parks around. Prices and selection are good and i would recommend it.
