The Fish- Best for What Sort of Surfer

by **flea2** » Mon Apr 30, 2007 11:30 am

I'm considering buying a fish,but am not confident if it is suited for my skill level. I currently surf on a 6'4 shortboard and have been surfing on and off for about a year and still consider myself a beginner.
I still have trouble actuallypaddling to catch the wave,especially when they're small. I'm told that the Fish will help reduce this problem for me
Thoughts? I'm about 5'6 about 130pounds.

Try before you buy.

Before DBBB gets in there!

Learning to surf on a shortboard is allways going to be very difficult and a fish will be even harder.
Do yourself a favour and get something much bigger. A minimal of about 7.5-8ft long would be a good place to start.
