    Smile 5´9 Baked Potato too big for 176 lbs?

    Will I be able to make good turns and play with it being so floaty?
    thanks all,
    Miguel

    miguel.surf,
    you should be on a 5'3 and not bigger than a 5'5 baked. The smaller and thinner it is, the more maneuverable it will be.

    ALOHA!!
