They grow out of them so fast you can save some coin. Grab a Zap or Exile skim board and, if you want, throw a fin on the back end. You can even put some hydroturf on top if you want. They surf great!

P5 scamp all the way. Good up to 120lbs and excellent resale value when they do outgrow it.

That is another good point. If you get a decent board and they outgrow it there is always a market for a used one. Kids keep coming along (for other people too).

Thanks gents appreciate the feedback. They've got a little brother that will grow into it so I don't mind paying a extra for a better fitting board. They do each want their own though, so the debut and one of Kane's options may be better suited for my situation.

Buy once

If you're just planning to goof off you can buy once and share a board but you'll find your riding won't progress.

Is the P5 scamp good for beginners also? My kids have never surfed before. They have only wakeboarded at a cable park.

my son is 8yo & 100lbs

daughter is 12yo and 100lbs
