What to expect from this board?

Newb here. Thanks for having me.

It seems that Ron Jon stuff is not not well liked here (anywhere? lol). But I just couldn't pass up this deal.

I'm wondering what kind of surf/surfer this board might do well with.

It's 8'0" long, 3" thick in the center,

18 1/2"w. at 12" from the nose, 23"w. in the center, 15"w. at 12" from the tail,

Nose rocker is 5 3/4", tail rocker is 2 1/4",

It has a very slight "belly" for most of the bottom. Then into a very slight Vee at the tail. Talking like 1/4" from stringer to edge,

Rails are "sharp" at the very beginning of the nose and tail and rounder for most of the board.

It has a Clark Foam emblem so I guess it's poly.? Or maybe Clark makes epoxy too.

I'm a 53 yr. old newb in Maine USA riding a 9' foamie. I've stood up and rode whitewash maybe 20 times. Lots and lots of learning ahead of me.

I'm wondering if this 8'er is something I should keep and hope to grow into or it is just not gonna be good for my 2nd board.

Oh. And will I get beat up if I show up at the beach with this. lol
