I say spend the extra if you can There's so much more to a good board than just the shape and how it paddles. Like quality and finish.. The construction.. The deck pad.. (not just how it looks and feel but how it's stuck on and also how thick it is).. The fins etc.. and also most importantly the resale value. If those things are not important to you and spending more is not an option the cheaper boards are fine.. They get you on the water, DJ

I shouldn'd stuffed around I just brought a Naish 10' Mana from Noel at "All Above Board" Lennox Head,good price,easy guy to deal with, also extremely knowledgeable and will help with any dumb qustions a new guy has.As always, pay the good money get the good gear,support local buinsses

hey Caltrano,nice car, The Naish wasnt the cheapest board I,d looked at,but the contruction was good,light weight and for fat bastards like me it floated really well,210 litres volume and 32 wide I stepped on it and it just,well, felt right I'd tried a NSP 10'6" good board not enough width or volume and an 11' Manulua(not sure of spelling)it felt sluggish .Have to wait for a surf report its blowing a 40knot southerly this weekend and I'm not that confident yet.
