Longboard... It's easier to float on a longboard, and it seems a bit more laidback  Not that I've ever tried my luck on a shortboard. Just a thought. Hope it helps!  | ||

It really depends on the day and on the wave. I use the board which suits the break of that day. If its hollow and fast, then it is suitable for a short board. If the wave rolls on and on then you gotta hang ten. :p | ||

My 2 cents. it depends, if you are still a newbie and want to learn in gradually, start out with a longboard, and then gradually earn your way up to a 'mal then a eventually, a shortboard. I believe that shortboards are good for cutting waves and those cool acrobatic acts. if you are a thrillseeker, go for the latter and "grab&let go". me - preferably longboard muna, hindi pa ako marunong e. hehehe JIM - musta na? peace! -=tritops=- | ||
