What boards do you have the best luck with when you rent?

[Kaptman]

Usually stay with a longboard to start. You can always rent others as you progress. If you get a half way decent long board you will keep it for a long time.

As long as you start with a longboard it will be great, but as you already said you surfed a few times so you can also try to get a smaller board, something like a mini malibu
Have fun
