Hi - i'm a complete novice on SUP boards and I'm trying to buy my boyfriend one for his birthday. I have found an 11'2 Tabou crossover board for sale (in good condition) and I wondered if anyone has experience of this board / could let me know if you think it's any good? My boyfriend is new to paddle boarding, 6ft tall and 85kgs.

Thanks for any reviews of this board!
Claire.

How wide is a 11'2 Tabou crossover?

Yep, thats the important point. For a 6ft beginner, at least 32" wide is important to speed the learning curve.

On the web I see that at least 2 widths for the crossover: 30" and 32", so it is important to know the width.

Note that the crossover can be windsurfed too: it may add a little weight but can be quite fun if your boyfriend - or you - windsurfs or want to learn it someday. And it will be easier to resell I guess.
