How bad is chlorine for an epoxy board?
As per your guys advice I went out and bought a 7’2 nsp funboard as my first real board because it was time to move off my soft top. I took it out a few times while it was 1-2 foot and it was awesome, however the next few weeks here in florida are going to be a lot bigger than 1-2 so I’m going to need to seriously start working on duck diving. Can I practice in my pool or will the chlorine damage my board? Also does anyone have any other good recommendations for how to practice duck diving? (Other than the bosu push unders, Im working on the intermediate pathway so Ive already been working on those.)
Thanks guys!

Which board should I be looking to buy next?

I currently ride an 8 foot soft top and am able to ride down the line in both directions no problem just from angling my takeoff. Im looking into purchasing a midlength to start learning how trim properly and generate speed.

I’m 5’9” and weigh 195 lbs. Also I’m surfing in Florida where the waves are generally pretty mushy. Does anyone have any recommendations for either specific boards, or at least some dimensions that I should be looking at buying?

Thanks guys!

(Also I completeded the beginner pathway, which was awesome, and have moved on to the intermediate pathway. Which is another reason why i think its time to graduate from my soft top.)

Hey guys I have a board question,
I watched the choosing the right board series and I’m still a little confused as to which board I should buy.

Im currently at the upper beginner level riding an 8 foot soft top. I can paddle out the back, position, catch waves and pop up with no problem but im having a real tough time turning the soft top to start cutting across the face of the wave.

I would like to move to something smaller because Id like bottom turns to be easier. Also Id like to invest in a board that im going to use all throughout the intermediate stage where I can eventually start working on turns and surfing the wave from top to bottom.

I surf in south florida most of the time, where we get mainly mushy wind breaks. However I do go to some of the better breaks in centeral and north florida usually around like once a week.

Also Im 5’8” and weigh 200 lbs

Any reccomendations for what kind of board I should buy?
