Unless datu kaayo ka, ayg palit ug board at this stage. Dili lang board ang imo kinahanglan.
Minumum requirement would be board shorts.(walay zipper and/or any other metal parts).
T-Shirt will do fine tntil you really would like to continue. Palit ug Rash guard.

Adto sa(sorry lagyo akong hibaw-an)

1. San Juan, La union(beach break)
Approx. 800-1000 pesos a day or 150/hr.
Coach 150-300 per hour.
2. Siargao(they also have areas for beginners)
3.Or other places nga naay for rent nga LONGBOARD.( you will learn faster and have more fun as beginner) At least 8 feet . more floatation.
4. Do not hesitate to hire an instructor. Sometrimes locals are helpful unlike what you read.

When you are good enough then find a board you really would like to ride.
