Hi there, just about to get into the sport and would love some info pls! Can surf, 90kg fit, good balance! Like to keep fit but also want to crack some waves. Live on the Goldie, so looking for good second to start. Any feedback appreciated. Klang!

Welcome Klang.. Check with your local shops and see what they recommend.. They might even have some demo board to sell cheap.. Give Paul or Ang a call at Roar Industries.. I think they have a shop on the Goldie.

You could go for something like the 10' Naish Mana or the 10' Starboard Whopper.. even something like the 11' NSP.. I'm not sure what other brands that you have up your way but others here might know.

you are lucky being on the gold coast as there is heaps of great boards to choose from.

I sent you a PM. Just a note that link that DJ put up has a very old address on it but if you follow it through to our website that has our correct address.

Happy hunting
