6'4''

So i went into a board shop today to figure out all i need to know to buy a board! A lot goes buying a snowboard, weight, height, what you like to do on the board... Well i was talking to the guy who worked there and basically, it all depends on what you want to do in the water! I told him i wanted to learn to ride a short board and that I've only ridden long boards, so he suggested a 6'4'' so i could get used to it, without getting super frustrated in the water! Well the boards in that area were about $380! All that to say, if you have an extra $380 lying around, i could find a decent use for it! Just throwin it out there...
