Answer 1

congrats on the 7'2", it'll work.

just get out there and surf, surf, fall, and surf.

maybe soon you'll be coming over the Hawaii to catch a few waves here.

Answer 2

Yes NSP boards are very good. Especially for beginners.

They are more durable being epoxy boards.

But I will agree with the guy who mentioned that you should take some lessons. You may think it's lame, however they can offer a lot of insight into surfing where you wouldn't normally be aware of.

Answer 3

NSP boards are generally very bouyant so that is a plus. Good length for a begginer too. All around that board sounds good for you. As for improving the only thing there is to do is surf

SURFS UP!

Answer 4

Well it all depends on what kind of wave you'll be surfing. If you got a slower wave then I might want to step it up so that way you can catch the wave more outside and get a better rider. But if you want the board for some tricks and some tight turns then this board would be great. Just might have to stay towards the inside a little, but with your body style, you'll have fun on it.

Answer 5

Answer 6

My advice is: go out and Rip into it!!
