I found a great deal on a Becker UFO surfboard, it has a single fin only set-up.. And is 10'. I'm 200 pounds 6'1, and was wondering if it would be possible to learn how to noseride on this board

The board will be more than fine for noseriding.

question - what are you using for noseriding now and how are your cross stepping ?

The difference from a Walden mega 6'10" to a 10 footer is huge. Even a 9'6" takes a long time to get to the nose. 10 is going to need a lot of steps.

Are you at a Point Break ?

I also had a 9' performance longboard that I recently sold.. I can cross step on my 8' wavestorm, but not super consistently..
