Beginner needs a board

Hi

Having spent a few days learning to surf/falling off/drowning and now can't get enough of it.

I am looking for a beginners board, pref a funboard which is able to take a few hard lessons with me..like an NSP.

Anyone out there wanting to get rid of one? I am able to pick up from Devon/Somerset/Hampshire/Surrey etc.

I just want something cheap and cheerful that will get me standing more often than swimming.

Cheers

Dan

Dan,


My I advise speaking to either Andy at TUNNELVISION or NICK at SUNSET SURF in regards to boards.

If you can't get to NEWQUAY then a phone call or email would do as well to these chaps.

Andy can be mailed at www.tvsurfshop.com

Don't know if Nick has a site.

What these guys don't know about boards, surfing, wetsuits etc. you could put on the back of a postage stamp.
