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

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

It’s a pretty sturdy board and I have to tell you the customer service is amazing. They answered right back. Had a little bit of a shipping issue, but they updated me and I appreciate their sense of urgency.

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. :)

Great product but just didn't end up working for our needs. Requested a return and customer service was very responsive and quick to accept and refund.

Exactly as described and arrived in good shape. Paint is rubbing off while applying wax. This does not affect the function of the board. Our 7 year old is up and riding waves having the time of his life. Not too stiff, could be a priblem for heavier riders 100lbs +. The board is super light weight and easy to carry. If it turns out to be more duable than i thought and we are still riding it at the end of next season i will change the rating to 5 stars.Update: At the end of the first season a couple of big bubbles developed on the standing surface. Still good for the money.Update2: end of season 2 and this thing has almost completely fallen apart. Top cover has debonded completely. Tried gluing it with foamboard adhesive but no luck. We used it almost every weekend for two new england summer seasons. Good value.

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.

Used as decor for fashion showroom, not sure id it is good for surfing but it looked nice and the colors are great. Somehow, one of the boards got lost in the office mailroom and I contacted Carol in customer service who got right back to me, Carol asked me to check around again to see if it got stored someplace else. She was correct. Customer service at this company is prompt and polite. highly recommended
