Hello to everybody, this is a great forum !
What do you think about the Whopper (or maybe a Naish Mana 10' but more expensive) for a lightweight person (I'm 67 Kg) in small (1-3 ft) mostly windy/choppy waves (like we have here in Belgium !)
Is'nt it to wide ?
I'm surfing a longboard but starts with SUP.
Thx in advance for your experience!
Hi,
I have rode both those boards. They are very nice. I did chose the Naish Mana. It felt lighter and it was easier to stand on and surfed great in all kinds of conditions. It really did stand out in the smaller mushy surf and caught waves with ease and gave me a lot of confidence to get through beginner stages. Hope this helps!

Agreed,
The Mana has big volume and you can ride much shorter. I would say a 9'5" for your weight.

Welcome to the Forum,
At 67kg the volume of any of the boards will mean they are very corky (boat like) for you.
Just depends whether you want to surf it or flat water / downwind with it I guess.
The old 9'6 Quad maybe a better choice for surf.

Thanks to everybody !
It's clear that those boards are to wide for me (but so easy...).
I'm looking to try the Drive (*board).
Thx again
