just check out the buy and sell pages, theres a few cheap cheap 2nd hand customs that are sub 9 foot down in SA that you could check out, good price as well, or just hit up your local shop if you can, most normally have some second hand boards, hope you find the little ones some boards, i can sense some family surf trips coming on,

There are plenty of second hand sub 9' boards around - especially aussie made boards like Lagunas/dc's etc - chech seabreeze for sales and also ebay for s/h customs.

Why not try and find a Naish Keiki 6'6" or 9' for the kids. They are as cheap as a good 2nd hand board

Hi calbs,

There are plenty of boards that will suit them...

The Naish 8'0" hokua is tiny, only has 95lites of volume, which will be great for them! I'm 65kg's and ride that board fairly easily. If you could find a used one of those that would be ideal.

Otherwise there are a few used Lauguna bay 8'6" 's kicking around.
We've got one here that you could check out.

Anything from 7'3" up untill about a 9'0" would be okay for them!
