Hey guys im going to be buyin a board soon i was just wandering if any one can help me out with the different shapes/sizes etc for each type of riding, IE:
would be helpful! i want to get massive air, go pretty fast, do some tricks possibly in the future and mayb ride waves, if there a good all rounder? Btw size would be nice too, im 6', round 95kgs, if thats a factor at all.. Regards, Aaron.
Mate most boards will be fine for that, I ride a wake style board and still have plenty of fun when we head out in the surf. Get a second hand late model, demo a few, they're all different. Just get out there..
Get a TT board around 132-135cm, dont get something to high performance as it will slow your progression down, so look at learner/intermediate boards aimed more towards freeride. Once you are up ridding comfortably you will have a better idea as to what type of board you are after, you may find you will stick with a intermediate board for a fair while. There are lots to choose from and they all ride a little different if you are after a brand new board just check out the different brand sites and have a bit of a readup on there boards, check out Best, nobile, LF, Slingshot, Fone, Cardboards to name a couple.
For surf buy a second hand Surf board around 6'2 it doesnt need straps.
For speed you may want to get something custom made out of carbon fibre to set world records. 50kts+
it's the right size, pretty good at everything, and forgiving along the learning curve too.)
