2. Surfboard Art: Help her personalize her surfboard by gifting her a custom surfboard art piece. This could be a painted design, a handcrafted resin swirl, or even a professionally designed custom decal. It will not only make her board stand out but also inspire her creativity and love for shaping.

3. Surfing Magazine Subscription: Keep her inspired and up-to-date with the latest trends in surfboard shaping by gifting her a subscription to a popular surfing magazine. Not only will she enjoy reading about the latest board designs and techniques, but she may also find inspiration for her own creations.

4. Surf Trip: Give her the ultimate gift of experience by planning a surf trip to a destination famous for its waves. Whether it's a weekend getaway to a nearby surf spot or a dream surf vacation to a tropical paradise, she will have the opportunity to witness different surfboard shapes in action while honing her own skills.

5. Surfboard Shaping Workshop: Enroll her in a surfboard shaping workshop or class where she can learn directly from experienced shapers. This hands-on experience will not only enhance her skills but also connect her with like-minded individuals who share her passion.

6. Surfboard Accessories: Help her personalize and take care of her board with practical accessories. Consider gifting her a high-quality surfboard bag, a durable leash, or even custom-made traction pads. These essentials will not only protect her board but also enhance her overall surfing experience.

7. Surfboard Shaping Book: Expand her knowledge and encourage her creativity with a comprehensive surfboard shaping book. Look for titles that cover various shaping techniques, materials, and design principles. This will serve as a valuable resource for her to learn and experiment with different board shapes and styles.
