Hey Guys,
Need a bit of advice! Have talked to loadsa surfers re. my first board (i started learning last summer). Im 6'2'' and just under 13stone. some people have said that length/volume is not really an issue with a first board, depending on what u want out of it...others have disagreed - suggesting an 8ft mini mal. Only want to spend £250 max - have looked at the bic boards - the 7'3'' mini mal, 7'6'' performer and the natural surf. a) is bic a mistake for a start? - some people have said they weigh a ton! (under 5kg for the mini mal doesnt seem too bad to me...?) b) is the mini mal too small, considering its only my second summer surfing? Will be surfing in north cornwall for years to come - know this affects the decision.
HELP!!!
Cheers, Joey
PS seen a new mini mal - with rhino bag, leash and wax for £200 - sounds like a pretty good deal. What do ya think?
