hey guys, i was getting a little tired of answering sooo many board questions so i decided to make a chart. here goes....

-- if you are a complete begginer and havnt surfed yet, i would suggest going ot the local shop and rent, dont buy, a fomie longboard or a softtop longboard for a week or so. These boards are easier to learn on because they are more stable in the water and safer then the fiberglass boards.
--- I would suggest buying a fish shortboard if you are looking to buy a shortboard and you are still a begginer.
