What SurfBoard SIze?

Question

im 4'10'' i weigh 76 pounds for bottom turn and cut back what board size should i get

Answer 1

I would recommend a shortboard since your too small to carry/control a heavy longboard. maybe a 6'4 thicker board.

Answer 2

Since none of us in cyberspace know where you surf, or how good you are, you should take this question, and your piggy bank, to a surf shop. Go to a real surf shop, not a bathing suit store that sells surfboards, and talk to the folks there who know your local breaks and what is available from big name companies to small, good, local shapers. Don't waste your time listening to a bunch of 'invisible surfers', who may never have really surfed a day. Go talk to the local people who surf the local breaks and earn their money in this business.

Answer 3

Wow i wish i was that small! The average surfer (5'10'' 165 pounds) rides a 6'0 to about a 6'2. However since you are so small i would recommened something smaller like a 5'8'' or even a 5'10. Just go to your local surf shop and check out the used boards. I would recommended buying a used board just in case you don't like it.

Good Luck

Answer 4

yeah a shortboard would work; 6'2"-6'6" range and maybe a little wider (19"-19 3/4") and over 2 1/2" thick.

Answer 5

probably around a 6'4 short board. It should work pretty good for you. unless your just starting surfing then you may wanna get a longer board around 7'3.
