Giantex 6' Surfboard Surfing Surf Beach Ocean Body Foamier Board with Removable Fins, Great Beginner Board for Kids, Youth and Children

Perfect surfboard for somebody just starting out I bought this for my teenage daughter who just thought it out trying to learn how to surf it was the right price it is adorable it is well-made it is lightweight perfect for a beginner

Come on people, this is the lowest cost board you can buy that still works! My kids surf with this board and it has lasted pretty good so far. Just dont be stupid and leave in hot car or stand on top of in sand. The board top scratches and punctures easily, so just beware of this and trim nails. The board should last you a season, or just long enough for your kid to want something better when skills improve.

I’ll start by saying that I had very low expectations for this board and was not looking for much from it. I simply wanted something to get my son through his first couple months of surfing before buying a much nicer one. My issues with this product have nothing to do with his ability to surf on it as a beginner. And I’m not comparing this to the ease of a longboard which would be unfair. Quality is awful. If I could have given this no stars, I would have. His first time out, on relatively small and calm waves, one of the fin screws disappeared and he had a wobbly fin until we could replace it. Not super helpful for a beginner. On the first day, we had the board sitting on the sand while we set up our space and, in the maybe 15 mins it was sitting face up, the paint became soft and started transferring onto towels, clothes, legs, etc. And, for as easily as this transferred from the board, it does NOT come off skin or textiles easily. The leash that it comes with seems meant for a body board rather than a surfboard. We had to replace that before he could go out. Can you catch a few waves on it? Yes. It’s very light which is great for carrying it down to the beach but probably made his learning a little more frustrating than it needed to be. I regret this purchase especially since it was half over the price of other much higher quality boards that would last years with proper care. Don’t bother with this one. I would recommend getting anything else.

Arrived with damage to the box & poorly taped, but the board was still ok. Beautiful vibrant blue & dark pink (not red). The fins are easy to put in. The little screw things can easily Be not screwed in & kind of next to where it should be, so Just make sure that you feel the resistance when screwing them in. The included leash will probably work since the board is so light, but it is basically black ribbon with a scratchy Velcro strap attached, so if you care about that, plan on getting a real leash. Due to the reviews, I did warn my daughter that it may work great in the ocean, or it may only work as a floating device for the pool; it may be great or it may be more like a temporary toy. It does not have the support inside the foam to prevent breaking & to hold its shape as it is basically a surfboard shaped boogie board. She still loves it no matter how it turns out. It's inexpensive enough that if it's disposable, we'll find some use for it. I'll update my post after we see how it goes trying it in the water for surfing. UPDATE: She had a hard time surfing on this. It doesn't float nearly as well as the standard foam boards. She's little (12 years and around 75 pounds). I imagine it wouldn't work well for an adult to surf on, but floating around may be fun. My younger kids (2 & 4 years old) love it for sitting & standing on in the pool and on the sand. Overall, it's still great for how inexpensive it is. But if you truly want to learn to surf, I'd go with something with a bit more to offer. Side note, if you take the fins off & attach a rope in the middle fun hole, it's fun to run and pull it along the wet sand while the kids sit on the board. :)

This fun board is super light buoyant and stable in the water even on a light surf day 1-3 footers you can have fun on this thing. The graphics are super cool as well and set you apart from all the other beginners.

It was great the first time we used it, but it hasn’t held up well. There are bubbles under the “skin” of the surfboard and the bottom is peeling after using it just 4 times. They dye rubs off on skin and clothes. It is still usable, but probably not for long. If it held up, it would be a great board for beginners. It’s lightweight and small enough that kids can manage, but big enough to learn how to actually surf as opposed to body-boarding.

Super quality! Quick delivery. Ever so marvelous packaging. First-rate service.

I did not want to spend a lot of money on something that my 6 year old was into (for the moment) . This board is great for her, it is light enough for her to carry. Its just the right size for her to handle on her own. It does great in the water with her. Myself on the other hand is 5'2" 135 lbs and cannot use it. I would recommend this board for 10 and under or short light weight people. But for the reason we bought this board, it meets the expectations.

Had to drill one whole to fit fin. Board is what I expected Going to Fun seeing how it works.

Great learners board for smaller humans.

Did not come with fins;cannot use

Très belle planche, cadeau pour ma fille mais elle préfère la garder en exposition sur son mur elle a peur de la briser en l'utilisant. Quoi qu'ils disent très solide mais reste a voir.

Total junk. I wasn’t expecting much, but maybe something my son could use as a first board to play with. Came with fins that weren’t molded properly. Doesn’t track in the water. Foam tore on the roof rack. Didn’t last a day. Didn’t even get to the water before it was breaking. Total garbage. Don’t bother.
