Too small for paddle boarding. You will need a bigger wider board for that!

i'm not an experienced enough with kayak's to take this into the ocean. if there were any waves i would have problems. maybe after a few months of using the kayak. if your experienced i would say yes.

Yes. Its a great board for the price. Just make sure to loosen the nuts when it arrives to get a better ride.

it might be a little slippery for a smooth surface like that. If the deck is older and a little beat up, the lifeboard would probably grip a little better than on a new deck.

My son is about 150 lbs...and the board hasn't cracked yet! So it would be a good first longboard for you. Have fun!

I don't think it would be very easy, since it's not as wide as paddle boards. but it's a good starter surf board.

My wife and i used in in the bay of Corpus Christi without any problems. You will want good paddles and the skeg but yeah it will work.

No way, man. If you're just starting out and want a foamy, you're going to want a much longer board with better buoyancy:weight. They are expensive, so I suggest renting for a few days and get smart on the characteristics of the board, what length works for you, what's best for your wave conditions, etc.

Yes. This a great board for cruising. The length of the board means that you can go real far on each push. Upgrade to Bones Reds bearings, and you go even further. I've had mine for a year ( with Reds bearings) and I am really happy. Even good for some tricks such as cross stepping. You can pay a lot more for a complete longboard, but it's more than good enough for cruising.

I am almost the same size and weight and i have enjoyed the pelican board paddle very much. I have never used a different one so I can't know how it is to ride on a smaller one. The size is ok for me

Yes you can but its harder to steer then a regular surf or paddle board because its weight. Pretty much if you can ride any wave that you could ride on a longboard.

I wouldn't really consider this a slide board it's more for cruising. I'm not sure about the wheels though.

Its pretty light for a aluminum paddle. The head of the paddle however is slightly flexible so I would not suggest using it for any kind of hard paddling such as surfing or racing. Its a good paddle for flat water cruising for the price however!

I use it on my mountain bike. I don't think it would do well on a paddle board. You might want to consider a Boombottle instead.

Ismael,I dont know why you wouldn't be able to us it there. Unless they dont allow kayaks there. The kayak is rated for 400 lbs, so you would be good to go. It moves well in the water, but wouldn't be the best when windy as it's very light and you may have to fight that. For me, I would buy another one if I did it again. It's great.Hope this helps

I don't think you can manage to do any kind of "surfing" with this massive board. This board is at its best when learning to sup in easy waters. Also this board is for bigger people, say 300 lbs. I would not choose to go at sea with this board.

Hi, the Ozoboard is a great cross over board - you should get a 9'6 if you are going to do SUP and you can still use it as a surfboard as well. Regards Jean jean
