iam looking for a stand up paddle board for my girlfriend, could you recommend me any brand?

- no experienca in sup, just ready to start
- no surf skills, just good swimmer
- 50 kgr. weight
- 1,53 cm. height

basically to start with and be able to learn progressively and in a flat water or calm sea

thanks
mike

At 50kg any board will do! My son is 45kg and he uses my old 10'2 longboard. If you are thinking about getting a smaller board for use in the waves then now is the time to get it!!!

thanks very much i will try to find something like you recommend...

all the best

My wife has a similar background and I originally bought her a 11-0 Oxbow. Too much for her to carry easily without a handhole but a sling works great. Easy board to start on and it glides well enough that when we paddle together she can keep up without me having to slow down TOO much.

I just bought her the Starboard 9-8 and she loves the board for its weight and ease of carry, plenty stable, but it doesn't glide as well. Depending on what you are paddling she may have a hard time keeping up unless you REALLY slow down. That said she prefers the Starboard herself. She's just starting to get comfortable in the surf and its a better board for her there for sure. One nice thing...I can surf it too even at my size.

How about a quiver
