They both look really about the same. so I would go with the second one bc its cheaper. Also i recommend surfing with someone who can teach you or get lessons. Even watching people surf can help out

craigslist is my call if you haven't bought one yet...you can get a real surfboard, for less. Just get an eight foot or bigger and you will be fine to start.
if you bought the foamy....you can still enjoy the stoke!! I would just recommend a hard board for the ride ability.
