Then, if you have to choose between a few, always take the bigger board, you won’t regret it. Find a good volume that suits your fitness, ability and comfort level in the surf, and see what boards you can find in that range. Volume is not the be all and end all of surfboard design, but it is the most accurate way to compare the huge range of boards that are now on the market. Level 1: Whitewater, Learning to Stand & Manoeuvre: 2.0lbs/L (0.9kg/L) Level 2: Paddling out, dropping straight down the face: 2.6lbs/L (1.2kg/L) Level 3: Trimming Down the Line, Attempting Turns: 3.0lbs/L (1.3kg/L) Level 3.5: Performing Basic Cutbacks & Lip Hits: 4.0lbs/L (1.8kg/L) Level 4: Aggressive Top to Bottom Surfing: 6.0lbs/L (2.7kg/L) Level 4+: Professional Level Surfer: 6.6lbs/L (3.0kg/L) For more information on the Surf Simply Levels, check out our Tree of Knowledge. Here are some suggested minimum board sizes for different abilities (remembering that the higher the number, the smaller the board). ![]() The smallest I’ve been able to find anyone riding on a regular basis is around 6.6 lbs/L, with several world title contenders using some boards at this ratio. As a bit of a guideline, 2.0lbs/L is probably the smallest board that’s practical for learning in the white water, while 3.5-4lbs/L is probably the biggest board that most people can duckdive. So here’s what you should do use this information to find a realistic starting point, to help you choose what board to ride, rent or buy. ![]() Surfing bigger boards after an injury a few years ago, did more for my surfing than anything else, as it forced me to re-evaluate how I was using my body, and what I needed to change.ĭevon Howard demonstrating how good technique, not low volume, is the key to great surfing. Smaller boards let you trim turns more easily, which can fool you into thinking your carving turns better but learning to carve turns is actually harder on a low volume board because you have less speed. A board that is too big on the other hand, has only one downside if you’re technique is poor, you can’t cheat and try to torque the board round with your upper body. A board that is too small will paddle slow, catch waves late, bog down in turns, and generally make your surfing look terrible. The problem is that while a smaller board is, in theory, easier to turn than bigger one, it is also easier to force bad technique on, which long term will hold you back far more than those extra 10 liters ever could. Too many people view the size of their board, or lack there of, as a badge of their ability in the water. Firstly, do not view any size of board as a “goal”, you should view a maneuver as a goal. ![]() To get this number you simply divide the surfers weight by the volume of the board, the higher the resulting number is, the smaller the board relative to the surfer. This brings us to our important ratio Volume-to-Weight, which we normally talk about in Pounds per Litre (lbs/L) as these are the 2 figures most surfers know, but Kilos per Litre works as well.
