Hi all, I am relatively new to sup, and I am just in the process of trying to buy my first board..
I am 80 kg, and approx 5'10.. I am looking to use board in small surf, and do some paddling in the ocean.. My concerns are stability in the ocean with any chop around.. I am looking at the Naish Nalu, 10'6 version.. There are some good reviews here for the nalu, so it is obviously a good board.. As I am new to the sport, I would think my ability in the ocean (paddling in bumpy water),will improve with time in the water..
I have been using borrowed boards, an older style Naish mana, 10'x32".. It seems nice and stable, a bit heavy carting up the beach, but I got around on it ok.. Did try a Nalu, and it seemed to go well, just want to make sure I make right choice.. Thanks for any and all feed back.

The 10'6" Nalu would be a good choice IMO... Welcome to the Breeze..
