    93kg 193cm looking for a SweetP

    Any size advice? was thinking a 5'6 or 5'4??? I currently own a 6'4 Dom which is slightly overfoamed...fells a bit...coarky!

    is it the norm to add volume on the sweetP to paddle easier, or take away as it is has a massive planing area?

    Depends on whether you are one of the guys who likes to ride boards over volumed or you are one of the ultra low volume gang. I have ended up happier in the fat crowd, by going over volumed. See my fleet. If you liked the 6'4 Dom ar your weight I would look at a 5'8 SP. Dont be forced into thinking you have to go small, remember what type of wave you are surfing this board on.
