Both my kids learned on Wavestorm boards. Great for teaching and they work in crappy waves. Not as fun to ride as a longboard though.

I think they are a ton of fun on the tiny days. I don't even really use my longboard anymore, just my 8' wavestorm. |

Cheap and disposable. Last a couple years get waterlogged or break. Buy another.

Support the craft! Support the culture and history not China. Get a longboard from a craftsman. ------------------------- "Man is the only creature who refuses to be what he is" a.camus |

I'm still very much a beginner, but I have a 9' foamie that I take out all the time when its small. I like not having to worry about nicks, cracks, etc. when I'm messing around in 1'-2' of water. ------------------------- NSB Kook |

Didn't know it took a craftsman to make a foam board , we aren't talking about a $1000 longboard , but a wavestorm foamy .

Oh don't worry I do, all my boards have been made in Brevard, but I'm 23 and not exactly rich so not gonna get a board shaped for a mess around/learning board. But I ended up getting one, hope to grovel around on it tomorrow! |

This is what I ride. You can get way more speed on a foamy... and the challenge of constantly trying not to fall. Edited: 06/18/2018 at 06:10 PM by Sector9surf |

how's the fish on shorepound type days? I have a 5'6 Chris Birch (I think he calls it the accelorator) quad fish that I love but sometimes it's so close to shore I'm scared of snapping the nose.. side note- That's my favorite my board I've ridden in waist high slop to shoulder high and proper barrells |
