What type of board should i get?

[theoallen]

So i surf in Cornwall in the UK a lot, and need a board of my own, any advice?

The waves there tend to range from about 5 foot up to 15 foot on a good day.
I am 16 and weigh 13 stone, which is 182 lbs. I am 5ft10 tall. I am also a beginner, so i don't want something too crazy. But any help and advice would be good thanks!

So what wave in this range are you going to surf?
Have a browse through the posts there are all the answers there and because you have contradicted yourself, you surf in Cornwall a lot , that's step above very beginner . I have set you this homework; read all the posts about being a beginner and what board suits.
Hopefully the board you surf Cornwall a lot on may give you some clues too. If you go with friends talk to the older guys ( who surf at Cornwall a lot more) at the beach for clues.
