What size bodyboard should I get?

Ho brah. You wanna look at something b/t 41-42 inches. It should come up to just a bit past your belly button. You won't get anything quality new at that price though, should be able to get something decent b/t 100-150 dorrar.

 

I got a morey cruiser 42.5" - not the best, but gets the jobbe done. Plus u can snatch one up for like $65 quid and trick the crap out of it... You'll be boosting in no time

A 45" board for a person your size is definitely to big. Listen to Seldom he knows what he's talking about. If you are serious about bodyboarding you are going to have to spend more money on a decent board. If you don't already use swim fins, I highly recommend them. If your not that serious about bodyboarding then nevermind them.

 

well johnny,
I would be more worried about the wrath and sarcasm coming your way shortly from members here being that this question is your first post.

 

HOLD UP! Spongers should be held to the same standards us surfers are held to!! Who in the hell are you first, then you get advice!

 

Fair pointe Z, Johnny, we need a hello thread. With selfies, pics of your cats, girl, etc.

Thanks Iggy

And Towel, quid, that was good.

 

Welcome Johnny!! sorry, I don't boddy board so I cannot help, but a lot of the fellas on here do.

 

Dear John,

Welcome to the forum filled with highly competitive, professional water sportsmen.
If you think that 36" is too small and 45" is too big, I'd say try to go for somewhere in between.
If you find that your boards are breaking easily, consider adhering a layer of plywood, the size of your board, to either sides.

Do you herd any animals at leisure? (Preferably cats)

Have you acquaintanced yourself with the prerequisites for becoming a better water sports athlete?

Do you ever forget to bring a towel?

 

try a 42.5 size should be about right for ya..look for board that has one or two stingers will help prevent breaking..study this video [video=youtube;i2HcNXWS4A8]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2HcNXWS4A8[/video]

 

get this one, heard its super fast and has two big handles for when the surf goes OH...
chow BROTHAAAAA!!!!!!!

 

Frost not only is this video pointless but your in no position to be recommending board choices

Why you ax...well the boards you bought and ride after given proper advice from other knowledgeable SI members is all wrong bruh

42.5 for his height and weight..foreals dawg

This dude will obviously suffice without a stringer on a low end board for what he be doing

 

I am only going to help one time, get this and your skills will improve!

 

Check out inspector mittens @ around 3:30... Like "the fock is all this noise..."

 

a. im guessing the log of hours ive spent bodyboarding don't count for anything?
b. im also guessing you've been inside my house and have seen each type of bodyboard I ride and or have ridden?
c.42 42.5 is normal size for just about anyone
d. he says he keeps breaking boards,a stringer helps in reduction of breakeage normally..

finally bro what is your beef with me? I don't get it?but am quite frankly getting pretty tired of your ****

 

Bald mitten

 

Ah Ol' Forsty that's why you posted those gallery pics of you ripping that 45 standup boog prone

Don't feel bad Ol' Frosty I also put peoples on blast on other social sites...you know if your seeking attention you might not get what you ax fo'
