Hey there, I surfed for the first time when back in Australia...

Hey there,

I surfed for the first time when back in Australia (my home country) last year around Christmas. I got up in my first session, riding a 7 6' NSP funboard. I sucked of course, but would love to become better. I'm very athletic (5 10' 205) and am wondering if this board would be ok for me. It looks great, and preferable to most longboards. Could anyone give me advice?

Cheers,

Marcus.

It will be a pretty good board for you. It has tons of foam and it is quite stable. It will be a bit more difficult to ride than the 7'6" you were riding but it is definitely workable if you don't want to go the longboarding route.
