Ive been with the beach my whole life(santa cruz)ive skim boarded for about 2-3 years very good at it waves etc. I just started using my fiends long board and i got up on my 1st wave. So i was wondering i don't want like a huge long board(im 5"5)like 110 pounds i don't want a short board but i saw these boards at arrow surf shop its eathier a 6"10 or very low 7 but it wasn't a short board,it said egg,it looked just like a shrunken down long board which i liked instantlly would this be a good board 4me?

Heya, I'm a short surfer too, and I find my egg brilliant to use- very stable & picks up tiny waves.. last time I managed to pick up nearly every wave I went for.
I'd get 7ft if I were you. I'm 5ft tall and have a 7'2" board- great length for me. I think anything under 7 ft would be too short for you.
I don't know what the official definition of an egg board is, but I've come to think of them as wide minimal/short longboard kind of things!
Hope this helps x
