Yeahp, heard longboards are easier to learn on. Makes sense, more surface area over the water.

Longboards are super easy to learn on....try an 8 footer.

If I were going to buy a board, I'd get a shortboard...because I'd get bored longboarding after a while.

If you go to my cousins website right now, he's having a HUGE sale. Im even thinking of getting a longboard right now since summer is around the corner.

www.islesurfboards.com ask for Marc.

And if you want, we can cruise to his shop this weekend and go check them out. Oh and the deal is a new longboard (regular $450) + day bag ($60) + a leash ($20) and a 3-pack o'wax...all for just the low price of $399. I think thats a steal dude. Sorry on the late reply, I just got it from swimming. Gots to keep them shoulders in paddling condition.

you're big, big people can't surf
