Would this be a good beginner SUP board / surf? 6'0" 156lbs. I don't want to purchase something that is going to limit me one way or the other.

Great beginner surf board for small to moderate waves. Go to a 9'6" for your height though.

Hi, the Ozoboard is a great cross over board - you should get a 9'6 if you are going to do SUP and you can still use it as a surfboard as well. Regards Jeanjean

Yes it would be a great first board, my son said it turned great and was really easy to do tricks with.

It would be better to get a longer loggier board for a beginner that floats them better. Costco sells one in early summer that is about seven or eight foot. Those boards are great to teach a kid to surf on, though only the strongest kids will get that size board to duck dive.

I bought mine as a somewhat "beginner," and it fit me well. One MAJOR drawback- it cracked down the middle while I was simply riding it one day. I weigh about 175 pounds, so I'd venture to say that the durability isn't very good. As far as riding, though, it's a good beginner board.

Funny I got this email right after I loaded my 32" wide board. Yes, will be fine. Length doesn't matter except for the particular vehicle. I take my 8'6 SUP on a bmw 530i. Don't like it at highway speeds, but Surface streets ok.

Yes, our son loves this surfboard and he can stand and ride the waves. He is much smaller, only age 7 and weighs around 50 lbs. I would check and see what the suggested weight limit is...but we are very happy with this board!

This one is my first and only I love it. And you never really know what suits you until you try it out. Some people like long boards and some penny boards. But this is def a great board. I hope I answered your question.

You might be able to my son used it for surf.. Maybe a longer one for standup Paddleboard

Weight is fine - and this board would work up to about 57" tall, if a beginner. It's a soft top, so will get dented, but so far so good. Minimal wear, and the fins have taken quite a few rides up onto the sand and rocks without damage. We've only used the board for a couple of month's, but it's in pristine condition, and used 4 - 5 times a week. Hope this helps.

Wow , I should have such problems!!! Ha! I am 5'3" so I am probably not the right person to give you advice, however, I believe the board is 6'? So with that in mind it should be okay for you? I love the board because I'm in an apartment that is carpeted, trying to be stable on carpet was a challenge, this board makes working out doable, plus it's easy to store. I hope someone w/more height gives you answers that I can't . Until then I hope this is some help. Namaste

I'd like to help you but I have yet to use this board. I too am around 200lbs and my old board was pretty much the same size and could carry me effortlessly. I have high hopes for this one. The bottom seems like it is quality plastic just thick enough to withstand abuse but thin enough to not be too heavy

Yes! I'm a 105lb girl and for the price it's pretty good. But if you want an actual "cruising" board, you might need to pick up some new gel/rubber wheels so you don't have to constantly kick every second and loosening the board is better for turns.

I am a 6'4" tall and 225 lbs bodyboarder . That is what the board is made for . This is not a skim board . Use the right board for your purpose .

I'm 225 and it floats me pretty good. It is not as stable as a fixed board but it is pretty stable. I've had a friend that was about 250 use it and he thought it didn't float him very well.

Yes. This a great board for cruising. The length of the board means that you can go real far on each push. Upgrade to Bones Reds bearings, and you go even further. I've had mine for a year ( with Reds bearings) and I am really happy. Even good for some tricks such as cross stepping. You can pay a lot more for a complete longboard, but it's more than good enough for cruising.
