This board goes incredibly well in all size waves up to 4ft and in really small weak surf makes getting into the wave really easy. I swapped to one of these for the summer from a standard 6'2" thruster simply to gain more float and bouyancy in typical British summer surf. I found that I was instantly getting into loads more waves and would imaging this would be a great board for someone also looking to get their first shortboard as it is super stable when getting to your feet. I have surfed it in solid 4 foot and it is maybe a bit under gunned but still went well enough. One major benefit is how tough the epoxy material is. Have had the board a few months now and it still looks brand new - I can highly recommend this to anyone who suits either of the two above descriptions. I am 5'8" and 12.5 stone if that helps anyone with whether or not they may need to go for the 6'6" or 6'8" versions.
