“I got this for my 9 year old son and it has been an amazing board for him to start on. It's light enough for him to carry, but strong enough that it can handle the water. This is a perfect beginner board and I don't have to worry about him getting hit with it when he wipes out.”
“Just what we needed for our beginning surfers. Easy to handle. Kids got up right away. Only downside is there is no hand grip for easy carrying to the beach.”
“Board arrived quickly. Got for my 6 and 8 year-olds making the step up from bodyboards. Pros: light, easily managable by smaller children, came with a decent leash. Cons: almost everything else. Sub-par construction (graphics on board aren't even straight!), fins inadequately located (tail drifts unless you are heavy enough to sink it on a rail). Both of my kids used it a couple of sessions and always fight over the other soft-tops I have been surfing for 40 years and own 3 other soft tops by other manufacturers and this is on par with the Wavestorm (i.e. not very good). Spend the extra $50-100 on a better manufacturer (Boardworks, Catch Surf, Soft-Tee etc.) unless you want to just have a beach toy not a serious piece of surf equipment.”
