The History of Todd Ayres and The Daytona Board Store

Todd Ayres is dedicated surfer, and the founder and driving force behind Daytona Board Store. Todd’s lifelong passion for surfing began at the age of 6, setting the stage for a remarkable journey.

A Lifelong Stoke for Surfing

For Todd, surfing is not just a hobby; it’s a way of life. His journey led him to California at the age of 18, where he pursued his surfing dreams with unwavering determination. His dedication paid off as he ventured into the world of professional events and secured sponsorships, earning him recognition in the surf world.

Founding Oceanside Surf and Sport in the ’90s

In the vibrant surf culture of California, Todd’s passion for the sport blossomed. In the ’90s, he took a significant step by founding Oceanside Surf and Sport in Oceanside, California. For over a decade, this shop became a hub for surf enthusiasts, offering top-quality gear and expert advice.

A Return to Roots and the Birth of Daytona Board Store

After spending an incredible 26 years in California, Todd returned to his hometown in 2009. It was during this time that he noticed a glaring gap in the local surf scene – the absence of core surf shops. In 2011, Todd decided to take matters into his own hands and founded Daytona Board Store. Starting small and fueled by his desire to share his love for surfing, the shop has since evolved into what it is today.
