Beginner: 7.6 Addvance vs 9.0 Longboard

It has a ding though and I'm not sure if it is wise to have it repaired. I don't know how an old board like this holds in waves it was made for, like today..

An old McCoy - you should post a pic here https://www.facebook.com/groups/127491403944016/ there are some very dedicated McCoy groupies who will at the very least tell you how great the board is (even if its not a nugget)

This looks like it, it's from Greg Pautsch: "Greg Pautsch is a Southern California Surfboard builder and producer of McCoy surfboards in the United States since 1978. He was a pupil of Geoff Mccoy."

I never surfed it properly though, back in '91 it wasn't the easiest board to learn on, but what did I know then? Later in 2010 I brought it back to Bali and had it restaurated, it had some delamination on the deck. The guy here did a great job and the board was ready for more serious usage, but then I was out of the water for about 2 years due to injuries.

When I was surfing again, but not yet ready for the bigger waves, I dropped it putting a big ding in the rail walking some stairs when the handle of the boardbag, same age of the board, broke.

I then started thinking maybe this is karma, maybe it's better to use it for decoration..
