How long will it last for a 10 year old kid who weighs 65 pounds?

I'd think it would last a long while. Very sturdy. I was worried about getting a "soft" surfboard. I needn't have been.

that depends on the roughness of handling board to and from beach, storing it, etc. I would suspect a couple of years or until he/she is ready for a traditional board. I know you will get some toenail/fingernail scratches on top of the board but it doesn't weaken the structure of the board.

It has held up great this summer for us. No issues with the board -- we used it this weekend and spent the whole day with it rotating 7 kids wanting to try and surf. 45-95 lbs each.

We have only had ours for one season, but my guess would be a couple of seasons.

I guess about 4 years with proper care (rinse and keep out of direct sun when not in use). It is very high quality for a foam board, and should work up to about age 14 if he is under about 130 lbs.

Depends on how much he uses it of course but I would say it will last several years if cared for. Of course if he uses it often, he'll need a more advanced board soon! You can always resell it to another person just starting out---they are hard to find used. This is what the surf camps at our NC beach use. It's been a great board for our 50 lb 9 year old daughter.

Weight is fine - and this board would work up to about 57" tall, if a beginner. It's a soft top, so will get dented, but so far so good. Minimal wear, and the fins have taken quite a few rides up onto the sand and rocks without damage. We've only used the board for a couple of month's, but it's in pristine condition, and used 4 - 5 times a week. Hope this helps.

my kids weigh 60lbs a piece and they sit just fine on it no problems even their daddy who weight 160 sat on it when we first bought it and that held him up too

I bought mine for a 3 and a 5-year-old. My older child is almost 50 lbs and it holds his weight fine. My younger child has no problem turning it on and using it.

It is a little narrow for me to sit in, but it easily supports my 130 lbs. I would expect the average 10 year old would fit without a problem.

Purchased in December 2013 so can't say how long it will last. My 15 year old daughter who is 5' 6", 150 lbs, does back and front arials, etc. and has concerns of falling through

I really depends on your 10 year old. It is a big machine but little 8 year old daughter has ridden it in the yard very slowly. I wouldn't let her hit any trails with it. Hope this helps..

My grandson is 7 yrs old and 80 lbs now and can still use his but I think that I would suggest 70 lbs and under. He got his 2 years ago so he probably was around 50 lbs. My granddaughter has one and she's 5 yrs old and around 40-50 lbs, (a little chubby) but she really rocks on hers. This brand is the best out there, I've checked them all and they're the best.

I bought this for my one year old grandson who is a bit chubby for his age. The chair is very durable. He is now thirteen months and the chair is still going strong. I hope this answer helps.

My son is 70 pounds and when he got it I had to jump on it for a while to loosen it up. It is totally fine now.... But I was surprised that a 70 pound person wasn't heavy enough to get it going

I believe I read it was 150 lbs. I have ridden it a few times. I wouldn't make it a regular thing because I want it to last for my grandkids.

My kids are 8 & 10. It has no problem with their combined weight of approximatly 190 lbs. This is one of the more heavy duty models as compared to ones I've seen on the market. We also purchased the optional net which is worth every penny.

I have had several kids with weight ranges from 60#s to 110#s on this with no issues at all. I try to keep it between 4-5 kids at one time BUT as many as 8 at one time has been on mind with no issues.

It depends - my 10 year old dog that weighs 70 lbs used it for over 6 months without a problem. Once we got a 45 lb active 6 year old dog - he bent it within a week and it never held up again.

It is very sturdy - I would expect it to last for some time (until the user gets to 75 lbs). There is a maintenance procedure which should extend the life of this product.

i weigh 150 and my son is 25, it does set on the floor so weight isnt a huge deal.

I'm not sure what the said anymore. But I would recommend no more than 150 lbs. my son is 80 lbs. so for him it's fine for now.

It depends on the age of the child; 10+ it should be durable enough. Any younger, no. The safe answer is, no.
