I am 5'10 and weigh 155 lbs. and surf New Smyrna inlet and Ponce inlet in Central Florida and the surrounding areas. I have been surfing most of my life and have a pretty solid repertoire of new school maneuvers. Im thinking of getting either a hellfire or hellrazor for our better conditions in Florida. Im leaning towards a 5'8 hellfire or 5'11 hellrazor. Any thoughts or suggestions?

If you surf real well then both will surf a purpose, just for different conditions. To me, the hellrazor is a great beach break board, but it does have to be a little bit bigger or steeper to work while the hellfire is a bit more of a groveler.
what conditions are you looking to address? -

Yeah I will be using it 4 when the waves are good and punchy in florida. I am kind of leaning toward the hellfire but I am not sure if the 5'8 would work for me at 155 lbs. Do you think that the 5'8 will have too much volume for me?Comment

yeah its a bit a of a preference call. Get into a shop and try to hold one or the other to help make a call. I think you can make arguments for both...
