How much do you have to weigh in order to surf?

Well I have been wanting to lear how to surf for along time now and I am finally going to do it this summer. But I am not sure if I am in the right phisical shape. I weigh 250 pounds (but loosing now that I started excersising). Do you need to be skinny to surf… or can anyone in any shape do it… cus the last thing I want is for my board to sink into the water LOL

Answer #2
