First surf board

Hi
My daughter is 15, 5’4 and slim build. She loves surfing but struggles abit with coordination. We go surfing a few times every year but we go body boarding a lot. She loves being in the sea and she loves surfing.
She can stand up on a foam board when we go Newquay
She has been saving her money for a surf board for a few years and was supposed to finally buy one when Covid stopped everything
Can you advise a board that will give her confidence and is easy to stand up and just is fun rather than skilful
I didn’t want to get a foamie but was looking at the soft top boards but I got overwhelmed
Basically helppp!!

I replied on your other post. Good to,see fun is the major factor, lack of coordination is partly because a lot of surfing is counterintuitive., it will come at your daughter’s rate! :lol:
