Surfboard for beginners

Postby duycan2000 » Mon Dec 14, 2015 2:55 pm

Hi Guys,
I come from Viet Nam. I have my friends in Australia buy cheap surfboard for beginners. I found some brand on ebay. Are some brands following good?
1/SHAKKA SOFTBOARD . Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/231387064232?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

2/Billow 7ft Surfboard. Link : http://www.ebay.com/itm/Billow-7ft-Surf ... xyi-ZTXNsY.

I tried to find some reviews of surfboard above but no luck. Can you help me? Thank a lot

If you are buying for friends, these are not serious surfboards, they are basically soft boards for children to learn on. They are safer if they hit you in the head, because they are soft.
They are too small for an adult to learn to surf with, g :mrgreen: pod for belly riding only for adults
