I forget my zipcode.where can Isee that?
A minimal. About 7.6ft.Minimals are perfect for beginners. I have one now (Im still learning too) and Its alot easier that other surfboards to stand up on. I suggest you try to find a second hand one. Not a brand new one at this stage in learning.
What surfboard size do I get for my height?
try a boogie boardlol
get a wider longer board then usual, it will be slower, but more stable. Im not going to pretent I know exact dimensions, but a good surf shop will know the slow boards from the fast ones.
Im looking for a surf shop in west palm beach fla..use to be called Fox Surfers. still there?
First..I would not purchase an expensive board, because as soon as she has learned she will want a different board. Actually the easiest board to learn on is a soft top..rent one the first day to get her started.Longboards of course are easier to learn on.. and the longer the board to learn on the better.. even as long as a 12 ft. you want it to be long enough that she will literally "pop" up when she catches the wave..Where is she learning? that makes a difference also. Mainly.. make sure she has fun!! Aloha!What is the best jetski to buy?
definetly a soft top board. usually above the height of about 9 foot. i know that i learned on a hard top and then the next day, tryed to do something fancy and about busted my teeth out. so, yes, definetly a softie for a beginner. talk to your local surf shop if u have one, if not, get some tips off the internet.As a beginner..what type of surfboard do u use?
The best board for a beginner would be a long board and it would be even better if it was a soft top. For girls longboarding is easier because of girls turn with their hips which is easier on a longboard whereas guysturb with their chest so they usually start on a shortboard. And longboards are wider so they're easier to control and stay on. :)More Questions & Answers...
