Should I get a Jacks Bellyboard?

Postby ultrakook » Tue Jun 07, 2022 4:51 pm

Should I get a Jacks Bellyboard? They're about 4 foot on a twin fin setup. I want to surf it.
Does anyone think I should get it? I need opinions since they look neat.

By all means get it, great for fun, become a smorgasboarder, but a strong suggestion pick one boardon which to master your surfing in early learning stages at 13 use the other boards to learn about the waves and their characteristics :lol:

Next thought get a hand plane , get your swimming strong if it not already and do so good old bodysurfing using the plane, you will be surprised very enjoyably! :lol:

There's tons of people riding "black ball beater" boards that are around 48 inches, so you should be able to get up on it.

Looks like a "Single" fin, though.

That was just an example picture. Although a single fin must be fun.
