2009 South Point 10Ft Bonga - 10' 0"

I'm thinking about something like this. But the quicker is im 100 kilos and really only want it for the occasional paddle. Mostly flat maybe a little surf.

Im also toying with the idea of my little sister wants to practice on a big mal. She surfed a 9'6" and liked it so was thinking maybe she could also play on it?

Any advice would be ideal? I can't even find the dimensions.

if its the old bonga special you will find it very tippy for someone thats 100kgs.

the special has a brownish deck and a sort of diamond tail,the newer ones have a swallow tail and would have to be better than the special, but don't know that much about them.

Actually went down to Hillarys and the Starboard crew were there with all the boards. SO my daughter and i spent a little over an hour playing around and have definitely decided on the Whopper but will probably go the slick. As i like the idea of it getting mistreated on the board and by the kids.

Very happy i gave it a go. Just now to find out when they are available in stock

Was really wanting it for Easter...
