I need a perfect surfboard size chart for me!?

Question

OK,I am a Californa boy looking for a good board. I am 90 pounds and 4'10,and I need a perfect board for me. I have been surfing for 2 years at surf camps and I feel comfortable driving down the line on 4 foot waves. I think I am good enough for a shortboard and I would really like some advise.

Answer 1

hey mark well at 4'10 i would say the perfect board for you would probley be something like a 5'3  or something around that rage because you don't want something to long because then you cant duck dive and maneuver the board when your going down the line.

Answer 2

This is a great chart that gives short board and fun board sizes based on weight and height and how many times you go surfing. Once you figured that out it is alot easier to pick out a board. I have been surfing for a really long time and this is a great website! Have fun! Cali is a great place to learn surfing isn't it?
