A longboard is easiest to surf, but very limited in terms of turning.
The next size down is a mini mal which is what I would probably go with if I was learning to surf.
Good boards for starters would be Starboard Start, Starboard GO, BIC 293, . i.e wide boards with lots of volume 160 -205 Litres . Some have dagger boards to help you get up wind. Check out second hand. A good place to start is to go online at www.surfstore.co.uk and get their catalogue... they have almost every board on the market with a description of use.
