I am in search of 2 paddle boards, one for me and one for my nephew. I tried it once and I am hooked. I got up and paddled with no problem on and Amundson 11'3". I live outside Boston and will paddle mainly on flat water, but would like to hop in some small waves from time to time. I don't plan on hitting legit surf spots to compete for waves with legit surfers. I don't have the juice for that right now, maybe next year.

I am looking at a used Amundson 11'3", will most likely get this one, but want to buy a 2nd one for my nephew.

Looking at Nugg, Gerry Lopez, Ron House and Gary McNabb. Any opinion on these or general suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Shaun
