Are you trying to improve your surfing or just have fun? I think Indo Boards are fun as hell, but I don't think the Indo does anything to improve surfing a shortboard. It could possibly help you practice cross-stepping as if on a longboard, but that's it. It doesn't mimic the movements we make in the water at all. You need something that will improve your muscle memory and the movements needed to build speed.
You are much better off getting a carving skateboard if you're trying to match the feel of surfing. They're getting better every year, too.

I don't really like the pro. My roommate has an original and it's much better in my opinion. I would just go with the original.

I got the original. The only difference is one is wider and one is longer than the other. I think the indo board pro is for skateboarders since it has less width. Your choice.
