Hi all, i'n looking to buy an intermediate surfboard. I've done a small bit of it before, but I'm no Kelly slater!

Looking to spend about $250-350 or something in that region.

Or does anyone have one they want to sell?

Thanks all!:)

New boards start at 5/600. Can get a 2nd hand for that price easily off eBay/gumtree

Dont know ehat kind of board you're after but I picked up a decent Mini Mal at the Longboard shop in scarbs,

Also Cordinglys normally hold a decent array of used boards (its been a while since I looked in there though!)

Know anyone in bali/going to bali?

Better to buy from there than in WA.

+1 for gumtree, picked up my mini mal there for $25. Few cracks down the spine but a $20 tube of solarex later and it was good to go.

Thanks for the help lads, especially you RiCeY!

Got it all sorted today. Went to city beach in garden city shopping centre.

Got a new 6' 6"board, leg strap, board sock, roof straps and wax for €450, not bad! ;)

You bought a jacks board? hope you got a board repair kit too, glass is pretty thin on them!

Yea it's a jacks board, seemed pretty sturdy to me. Not that I know a lot about boards. I'm only learning so should do me fine for a while.
