I would only recommend that board for a beginner because it is cheap and performs well for a beginner. If not that board, get one of the softtop longboards, they work great.

Once you are proficient, than step up to your local surf shop and get a more expensive local shape that will work for the break you want to surf.

Gordon & Smith 8' Soft Long Surfboard
Fins Included

$224.99
Item # 107711
Shipping & Handling included

The G&S surfboard is built from new and innovative designs for the beginner as well as the expert. Soft yet durable construction allows exceptional performance in all types of surf conditions.

Hand shaped
Hand glued stringer
Unique infrared lamination system
Tri Fin design (fins included)
High-impact polypropylene slick bottom
Cross link 8 lbs top skin

Well, my only concern is... I am not a small guy, is this board ok for me? Thanks again for all your help!
