    is that an irish site ceci mor ? was hopin to find board etc here rather than uk

    It's an Irish website with plenty of members South based so bound to be plenty near you.
    longboardireland.com I think.

    The money you mentioned buys a new board of an Irish shaper, it's worth talking to those who shape as well rather then those who just sell.

    i had a 10ft Bic longboard, and found it a bloody nightmare in the water. It was easy to stand up on it, and great fun, but made bits of my arms trying to lug it through the water. I would consider an 8-9ft longboard in the future though..

    I found the slightest breeze would make getting the board to the water hell but once in the water it was super easy to paddle due to all the float.
