i need help finding a board

Postby andres1105 » Mon Aug 01, 2005 7:37 pm

i'm not sure what kind of board i should get, i'm still a beginner, I'm about 5'10'' and 133 pounds. Do any advanced surfers here know what board i should get?

It depends on finances. If you have enough money to buy a beginner board first, then change it when you get better I would do this.

If not I would recommend a 7ft - 8ft mini-mal. This will be long and buoyant enough to learn on but manoeuvrable enough to let you progress to better surfing.

Cheers
