How GearToGo works
The windsurfing marketplace built for windsurfers — EU-wide reach, smart gear advice, and a fair price engine.
Why GearToGo?
Most second-hand gear stays within national borders, scattered across WhatsApp groups and Facebook pages. GearToGo changes that — one listing reaches all 27 EU countries instantly.
EU-wide reach
Buyers across Europe can find your gear. More buyers = better price, faster sale.
Smart gear search
Search listings across the whole EU. Filter by sport, category, size, brand and condition.
Gear advisor
Not sure what to buy? The advisor asks a few questions and matches you to the right gear.
New gear section
Alongside used gear, the advisor also shows what is available new in shops.
Proactive gear search. Add gear you are looking for to your Inventory wishlist. When a matching listing appears, you get notified — no need to check back every day.
Listing your gear
Selling gear takes about 3 minutes. The sell wizard walks you through finding your product in the catalogue, setting a fair price, and publishing.
3 free listings
Every account starts with 3 active listing slots, free forever.
5 extra for €5
Need more? Buy a pack of 5 listing credits for €5, or 10 for €7. Credits never expire.
Fair price engine
The wizard suggests a fair price based on real sold data, age, brand and condition.
Your Inventory
Your Inventory is your private gear collection and wishlist — completely separate from active listings. It has two tabs:
My gear
Catalogue your own equipment — boards, sails, masts, booms, fins. Completely hidden from other users. When someone searches and finds no listings, we check inventories for a match and notify you. You decide whether to respond — the buyer never knows if anyone has the gear. When ready to sell, hit List for sale and the details pre-fill automatically.
Looking for
Add gear you want to buy. GearToGo checks active listings for a match and notifies you the moment something suitable appears — anywhere in the EU.
The Inventory is free and does not use any listing credits. Think of it as your private digital garage and wishlist combined.
The Gear Advisor
Not sure what board or sail to buy? The advisor is a chatbot-style recommender that asks a few simple questions and finds the best match for you.
Sport & category
Pick windsurf, wing, kite or SUP, then choose what type of gear you need.
Skill & style
Answer questions about your skill level, riding style and preferred conditions.
Matched results
The advisor shows matching gear from the catalogue — both used listings and new in shops.
Full kit list
For boards and sails it also suggests the accessories you will need (mast, boom, harness…).
