The surf isn’t the only thing that is up. Apparently so are the tariffs that U.S. surf board makers are now facing when selling American made products aboard. However, the United States allows foreigners to sell in the United States duty-free.

Surfing was supposed to be about catching waves and good vibrations, but nothing about this story sounds like it.
