Is a 7'3" bic surfboard good for beginners?

Question

I just bought that and I think its good to start out with a big board.

Answer 1

I think it depends on your athletic ability, and the conditions you will be surfing in.  A longboard is a good starter length, but if you progress quickly, you will want to add a shortboard to you arsenal.  You can have lots of fun on that board, so get out there and enjoy.

Answer 2

yep i had a bic bout 7ft when i first started to learn. there really durable cos of the plastic, also nice and floaty. but only just duckdivable. andyou wont look like a total kook carrying a massive board around.

have fun x :P

Answer 3

sure it is, as long as you can float on it. you too can paddle out with the masses and watch me take all your waves. ha ha ha My Beach My Waves

Answer 4

Ah you got a mini-mal.

Bic hasn't been in the board business for very long so I don't know what kind of quality the board itself will be. I'd be gentle with it.

For beginners it's generally better and easier for you to learn on something a little larger than a 7 footer, but you should be ok.

Answer 5

ya,  you got the right idea
