If you want a board in the same price range, demo a Ronix Koal 5'0" Lots of heavy riders are capable of riding this board. Personally everyone that I have taught to surf, had a hard time getting up on the Blue Lake. It is a nice board, it just was diffucult for them to get up on. May have just been them. But when I switched them to a CWB Tsunami they were able to get up first try.
