I'm looking at buying my first SUP board and need some advice from someone in the know... I can get my hands on a PSH 9'6 X 30 for a good price but am not sure if it will be big enough... I weigh about 97kg and have surfed a shortboard for over 25 years - i'm not all that interested in paddling flat water too much but just want something to keep me fit and get me in the water when the surf is average. Unfortunately my better half has already killed the idea of a quiver so i'm looking for something which will last me a while. Am i kidding myself to try and learn on something this short? Not
sure which model of PSH it is so have included a pic
Have been known to be wrong (many many times
)
But think I noticed this board in the classifieds a few days ago. If so was described as a10' or 10'6 and handglassed. Guy was selling it coz he thought it was too small for him but thought to myself it just needed some perseverance.
Anyone else see it?
at your weight this might be a bit small for you especially if you are learning i would go something bigger and work your way down. I learnt on a psh 9'3" ripper and was hard work at first but then began easy except i weight 71kgs
