Starboard Drive is good board too start out on. It was my first board, nice and stable and surf quite well too.
I think it may be there most popular all rounder type board too date, and have a great resale value when you want to sell it too upgrade to another board.
Hi Renee11,
I recently bought a 10' naish mana 2010 .awsome board
i tested a few before buying ,imo this board does it all well eg;flat paddle ,surf & great stabilaty for learners but still peforms well in surf.
As wazupra said second hand is good option for first board .When i have the coin saved im also going to invest in smaller board just for the waves .
welcome to the addiction of water sports. calbs
I reckon the naish mana 9.5 or 10 or a fanatic allwave 9.6 are the go. Both are as stable as they come and both surf really easily and well. The allwave edges the mana out imo as a slightly looser board.
