i am 5'0, beginner, and about 125 pounds. What board will work for me?

It should work okay. Ideally it should be a little bigger, but it should work.

I would go bigger, as a beginner the bigger the board the easier to get started. This board is light enough even at a larger size. I HAVE ridden this one though and I'm 5'8 150. So it will work. Bigger boards are more stable and make catching the waves WAY easier. Having said that for it's size this board has plenty of float and is stiff enough to support your size easily.

Hi Amanda, my daughter is 5'2 and 105lbs. This board will be sufficient for you. Keep in mind that, the bigger board you have, makes it easier to learn how to catch a wave and stand up. Good luck I hope this helps.

This one is my first and only I love it. And you never really know what suits you until you try it out. Some people like long boards and some penny boards. But this is def a great board. I hope I answered your question.

I think that depends. Is balance something you need to work on as well? If so, I would get a bigger board to give you more space to practice.

Wow , I should have such problems!!! Ha! I am 5'3" so I am probably not the right person to give you advice, however, I believe the board is 6'? So with that in mind it should be okay for you? I love the board because I'm in an apartment that is carpeted, trying to be stable on carpet was a challenge, this board makes working out doable, plus it's easy to store. I hope someone w/more height gives you answers that I can't . Until then I hope this is some help. Namaste

The board is very sturdy & stable. I am only 110 lbs. I would refer to the weight guidelines recommended by the manufacturer.

I weigh around 200 lbs. And get very little flex. It's a pretty solid board.

I'm 275 lbs & 6,3 and still have this board. It works great and is definitely a good starter 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 Jeanjean

I'm 6'1 190lbs and it's a great board. It is pretty long to commute with but it's great on the water. We have two and love them

Yes, it would be too big. I rode this board and I'm 170 pounds. Here's a site that lets you build a board for your kid: http://www.skatexs.com/It's definitely a much pricier option. If nothing else, this might give you an idea of what you should be looking for.

At 120 you should be ok. But you if like to ride on your knees or whats called drop knee ( thats front leg up back leg knee) a stiffer board is preferred. I suggest the mach 7-7 for this stance. Im am 230 and this board does not bend at all. Hope this helped. Board on!

Edit: My friend is 220 and he rides without a problem. This is a great board, I got it for him a year ago for his birthday and it's still in perfect shape.

I have this board and love it. It's a great board for beginners. I'm an adult of average weight and this board hasn't broken, it's very well- built. The trucks need to be loosened a lot at first, but other than that it comes fully set up.

Im like 190 pounds(a big guy), and this deck still supporting my weight. So, its really a good board.

I am 210 lbs and have no problem so I think it would be fine. It is a nice board.

The board is alright for someone of that weight. I'm 210lbs and this was my first board. I recommend this for a beginner, some learning to skate.

Im not really sure. As i only weight 120 and xan barely bend the board. But its worth a shot in getting and about speed its pretty slow. I recomend high end longboards never cheap unknown brands
