Hi All,

I am an intermediate beginner (lol) surfing Fish Board (6'4"). I am moving to Perth in a week time, and I wonder what type of a second board I should bring with me, for the most common surf type in Perth (Cottesloe, City Beach, Scarborough).
Minimal? Long board?

Thanks!

I shall leave this one for the mighty Pup - but from what I have seen when I have been over there I would be investing heavily in a boat or petrol vouchers for trips south

well just typical- a poor sod struck in perth asking about what kind of board might be suitable and all he gets is wise cracks and thread hijacks.

i'm proud of you blokes.

ps from the 3 days spent there for my brothers wedding i would be looking elsewhere- horrible hot dry hell hole in summer- no offence pup
