Costco wave storm 8 foot, at 6 ft 3 / 210 lbs am I too big for it?

need a cheapie board I can abandon when I am done for some slowish 2 to 4 foot typical longboard type waves

never been on a wave storm, so I have no clue if it will do the job or not.

or do i need a greco 9 foot, as that is not nearly as cheap?

thx

 

Apologies let me introduce myself properly.

I am 38 with no injuries in very good shape imo. My regular work out is the best 44 bodyweight exercises of which I can do 10 reps on all but 2 (Google it best workout ever made for any sport) . Swimming? Used to swim competitively into college years, fly and backstroke, I still lap train once per week.

15 years ago I used to surf a short board but back then I weighed 185 lbs.

After I snapped that board at Zuma drains I never bought another. And never got on another.

Sports I prefered to surfing (to this day)

Downhill mtb
Dirt bike
Sponging

I been going to Mexico a lot recently where there seem to be lots of longboard breaks so I been messing around on rented boards. I have no idea what I have been riding other than they are big and renting them is expensive. Last year was my first time stand up surfing again in around 12 years. I still go out and sponge at Zuma drains or the wedge but only if it gets big.

I wanted to buy something tough and cheap so people with me can bang the board into everything with out me worrying about the board. Also I just want to have fun surfing I don't really care about much else.

Thx

Was up from drinking too much vodka the sugar in alcohol is like caffeine to me I think.

I deleted post because after I read it I couldn't even understand what I was asking so I called it a night. I tried to really delete the post but couldn't figure out how. Probably my fault for that part too.

 

oh yeah, trust me, I am under no illusion that I am a better surfer than a wave storm can deliver. So definitely the question was not am I too good for a wave storm, but rather am i too big for a wave storm. But it seems like it will be OK. So I am gonna buy 2, put them in a surf sock, and haul them off to punta mita / sayalita in 10 days.

thx

 

ok here is me and woman in my brief short board years early days, it looks like blacks beach. With a whole bunch of awesome super kook neck attachments. joys of being young.
