Why not go custom though?

Answer 2

I don't want to disappoint you, but the board you are looking for is JUNK. Surf Betty, and NSP products are mass produced popouts, that are cool to learn on, but once you learn how to surf, they need to be shipped off to the consignment rack in a surf shop.

There are hundreds of good shapers in the world. Some are big companies, like Rusty,Channel islands, Lost etc. Some are smaller, local shapers, who build great surfboards.

I guess if you are very young, and this is your fist board to learn on, any popout is okay. I'd personally recommend Bic, as a little bit more durable popout, with some good designs. However, if you are anywhere beyond that, do yourself a favor, buy a real board. Check out the link, it will explain a little bit about popouts to you.
