1.- The 'fish', which is a board that is thicker and more stable.

2.- The 'shortboards' or "thrusters" that are used by the more experienced surfers.

4.- The 'gun' surfboard, which is used for big wave Surfing. They are long, but narrow.

5.- The 'longboards', which are very easy to get up on and have a larger area to stand on. These are VERY good for beginners.
