: surf-ski. That's what the "sport" is around here. He'll learn
: quickly and won't outgrow it, and he'll have plenty of fun when seeking
: out wind and waves, getting in a good workout, or even racing.
I new someone that sold and paddled surf skis, great fun but they were long and very light, did not last, names will not be used to protect the..... He did use them hard, in waves and big winds in the Pacific Ocean. He has plastic kayak now for fishing with a worn out body, life makes you pay latter.
