I am having trouble buying a paddle board I would be happy with, could anyone help?

I have been wanting a paddle board for a long time, but I am having a difficult time choosing. I am looking at Paddle Board Hawaii, Naish, and Rivera. Any other good brands that I should be checking out? I am looking for a board that I can cruise around and tour but also surf with. Thanks for the help.

    Find a dealer who does on the water demos or go somewhere that you can rent or borrow models. Nobody can really tell you what you are going to like, experience is the only thing that will make that clear.

    To tell the truth, most people who really get into any paddle sport end up trading in for a different model eventually once they start to get the feel for what performance features they want. So just get whatever in your budget is suitable for paddle boarding. BTW, you can't really surf well with a board designed for paddling. Decide what you want to do most and focus on that -- there is no board that is ideal for both and one that tried will just be lame for both activities.
