The 8ft regular width SSR board covers the majority of beginner surfers' needs in terms of volume and stability and is the most popular board in the SSR range. Will work just as well in white shore surf as a cleaner wave. Shaped with a performance edge at the tail, this board will really encourage you to progress. The carry handle makes it easier to carry down to the beach and sea, while the soft IXPE textured 'foamie' skin provides grip and a softer landing should you fall on it.
