Hi ,I have a 10 ' mana great cruising with kids also fun in surf but ready to get a board i can throw around on the waves ,something stable but loose in waves any sugestions will be greatly apreciated cheers. i weigh 82 kgs.calbs
Keep in mind the correct board in volume and width plus rocker design to make the best for your progression.
I have been SUPping for 12 months and moved from boards with too much volume so corky and less stable to what is now working for me. 6 Months ago I found the Jimmy lewis 9' 1" Kwad x 130 L volume was excellent for my 76kg however quickly moved to the 8' 7" Kwad x 115 l tippy for a while but soon excellent and perfect for me on waves.
I have a 9' hokua and owned a 9'11'' psh wide ripper prior to the naish. I wish i had kept the psh as it was a fun board, nice and stable and surfed great for my crap standard. It has taken me a few months to find my legs on the 9' hokua but its way nicer in the waves once you get dialed in.
