1.0 out of 5 stars A kid's toy, a (small) dog's surfboard, but way overpriced at that!, January 5, 2011

Of all the things I have purchased on Amazon, this may be the one I regret the most. The pictures somehow managed to deceive my brain into thinking that this was actually a boogie board/skimboard sized object, and that I could have a good time playing around on it.

Ah, if only I were two feet tall ...

This is a piece of foam, wrapped in some laser-printed material (no stomp pad texture or anything of that sort, just a graphic), that is about three feet long, or -- despite the typo -- about 40".

For what it is, it is way overpriced. As the reviewer wisely said on the "Pro" version (if only I had read that before buying this one): "This is a toy, not a surfboard [...] Save your money it's a pool toy, and an expensive one."

I second that.

This Board is not a surfboard nor a boogie board aka body-board. This is not meant to be out submerged in ocean nor used to catch waves! DO NOT attempt or you can be injured. This particular board is like a skateboard on sand. How it works is you simply run with the board, drop it on shore (25ft away from water or enough to where water is still atop the sand)and you slide all the way until you hit shore! Once you hit that water, you can do cool tricks and is quite fun! They should have been more specific and labeled it as "Skim Board." either way this can be confusing! I elect they call them "Sand Boards." That would create less confusion and the title in itself should pop the magic question - "Hey, what is a sand board?" WOW! That was easy! I hope this helps you guys out! Switch it up now and try your hand at some slip n'sliding on sand! Wooohooo!

4 Stars just because the title is confusing for those not experienced on purchasing any surf, watersports product.

This ia a material covered styrofoam boogie board claimed to be a surf board. LUckily it has removable fins on the bottom and it is a bit longer than a boogie board otherwise my son would not have wanted it. Description was not specific on these points. For the price it is great and is built well.
