Help on boards!

Postby javisurf14 » Wed Nov 28, 2012 7:52 pm

Hey, just wanted to know which of this two used boards is a better buy. I am around 130 lbs and 5'9.

One of them is a friends rusty redline 6'0, 18.25 width, 2.25 thick and 25 volume with knew FCS at around $220.

The other one is an Eric Arakawa board with dimensions (6')(18 1/4)2 1/8(width) at around $280

Both include everything. Thanks in advance

Can you surf? Can you already surf well? :?

Neither of those are suitable (they're way too skinny) unless you know what you're doing, in which case you should be going for the better board, not the better deal.

Perhaps the most important thing if he's planning on sampling as many boards as you do :lol:
