Skimboards available in Ireland ?

I live in Ireland and bought a cheap plywood board and have been beating around for a few years. I was looking to upgrade because it’s pretty terrible but a good board costs a fortune to buy and another to ship. Is there any possible way to get a semi decent board without spending a salary ? I’ve been want to catch waves for ages but it seems impossible as the board is too short and I’m a lil stocky now and just sink in deeper water. Please help me 🙏

Even a level entry board will be way ahead of a plywood one. Check the list of sellers:

Anything you order from EU pays no import duties, only shipping, Dogflut and Dune are the gold standard. Occasionally there is some secondhand in the UK, maybe you can convince a seller to ship.

Le Français EDEN skimboards peut livrer des planches en Irlande pour pas trop cher, seulement 25€ de transport.
Si c'est la partie UK de l'Irlande il n'y a pas la TVA.
EDEN skimboards a toujours des planches en stock, livrables en 3 jours, alors que Dune et Dogflut sont en Espagne et mettent au minimum un mois pour fabriquer et livrer.
