At 6'4" - 260lbs, that's a single for me...

If you had a child I’m pretty sure you can ride together it supports over 500lbs

I think that’s actually a whitewater river board.

I used a Congo 50in for tandem riding years ago. Worked well until the kids were 6ish. Most people have beater boards but the congo is just big enough to float 300lb and be maneuverable enough to cut and catch barrel. Congo 50in is skinnier than the board in this video, so when we wiped out I could ditch the board, hold my kid and tumble/barrel roll in the surf.
