You’ve gone surfing a number of times, and it’s time to start exploring other styles of surfboards. For a more in-depth explanation, read our Beginner’s Surfboard Guide. Additionally, soft top surfboards are great beginner boards - affordable and durable. Larger, wide boards are very stable which is the main reason that they are the perfect board for learning how to surf. Longboard surfboards have a higher volume which provides a great amount of floatation. For a beginner, we recommend going with a longer and wider surfboard. It’s important that you have the right beginners surfboard so that you start out on the right foot. You may have never been surfing, or maybe you’ve only gone a handful of times. Your experience level plays a big role in choosing the right surfboard’s size and shape. Height and Weight – This plays an important role in how a board will perform under your feet.Your surfboard shape should be tailored to the type of surf you are expecting to ride. Wave Type – Every surfer has their favorite location.Experience Level – Do you consider yourself a beginner, intermediate or advanced?.What to consider when choosing a surfboard Really, you would probably be better off with a mini mal of at least 7ft6.Choosing the right surfboard for you can seem daunting at first, but knowing a few factors about yourself and your skill level will help you pick the perfect surfboard. Even 7ft is a pretty short board for someone of your weight and skill level who is only surfing twice per year. You will just get rusty after a break of that long, so much so that you be grateful for the board that is the easiest to surf (I find a break of a month and i'm rusty) Plus (again), at the end of the 2 week period you will feel really good and confident, then for the first week of the next holiday you will struggle and flail around and miss waves and get everything wrong.
Water fit means a lot of swimming, for a start. Plus to Old man's comments, unless you are keeping water fit during your offseason (ie the other 50 weeks of the year), the bigger the board the easier to paddle, the less tired you get, the more you can surf, the more fun you have, the more advanced you will become.
