The size of the board, the purpose and the weight limits. We advertise the All Rounder boards to beginners, presuming that they are going to be paddling on flat water or in calm lakes / rivers. If you are planning to go further afield or need a board to tackle harder conditions, whether you are a beginner or intermediate, we recommend the Touring board. The more you take care of the board the longer it will last. If taken care of properly, there is no reason why it cannot last 10+ years.

There are specialist kids boards designed for children, usually at about 9ft / 274cm but the maximum weight limits are typically pretty low. If purchasing for a child you should consider purchasing a child’s paddle, which unfortunately at the moment we do not stock.
