Hi guys,
I have a mate interested in buying my 9'5 Mana.
He's a bit over 6ft and just under 100kg's with no SUP and little surfing experience.

Will he 'grow' into this board if he perseveres......or is this board just no good for him?

Cheers.

He should be fine.. btw it's a great board.. I'm 6'4" and 95kgs and it's very stable for me.

Im 106 kg and both the 9.5 and 10 foot manas floated me no problems at all. The manas are a great board to start out on, they paddle and surf well.

I'm 6'2" and 85kg (summer weight), 90kg (with my winter coat on).

I started on 9'5" mana and it was a great board which lasted me for over a year.

Thanks heaps guys.........just didn't want to sell him something that wasn't suitable for him.
The Mana was my first SUP and I've had a blast on it, but found it a little corky for my weight (75 kg's).
Just scored myself an 8' 10" Allwave....a little less volume so hopefully a better fit for me.

Cheers,
