Surfing Waves

Hey guys,

i have been doing a lot of research about what surf board i should buy, I've come here for a little advice

i have been skate boarding for six years, and growing. so i don't want to invest money on a "Learning board" i figure the learning curve wont be to steep.

i will also be surfing the Breaks of lake Michigan, i know what your thinking, we get waves and the sizable too its just damn cold!
the sets come in fast. so i am thinking about buying a hybrid board. it has enough mass to catch the wave and i don't loose any of the rip it up characteristics of a thruster.

also, what company i should buy from? im very interested in Environmentally Friendlyfriendly boards.
any advice?

Cheers
Nik

dont buy a learning board, rent one for a week or two, then get a different board (shorter or bigger, your choice)

Great lakes = Smallish blown out, gutless waves.

You need a longboard or custom mini-mal
