Need a little advice on what size SP to get. Im 6'1" and 190 Lbs. Im currently riding a 5'8 Dominator, mostly as a quad with Rusty R2's, Ive always been into shorter wider boards. I actually ride the Dom 4-8 ft. I want the SP for ankle biters to head highish. Any suggestions on what size to get? Im a strong paddler and have been surfing 10 years (23 y/o). And a pretty advanced surfer, any thoughts would be awesome!
5'4" id say.
Agreed
Thanks guys!
No problemo

Im 225 and 6'2" and downsized from the 5'8" into a 5'6" and its money. Could go 5'4" but I want the length...

Length will be crucial on the small days, even over volume

Hey All, use my Firewire email, [email protected] for emergency issues, not my forum inbox. However, please avoid contacting me directly with questions on choosing a board, just use the glorious forum. Cheers!
True I also think this shape is the closest thing to a hull that I have ridden. There is a so much wetted surface area and planing surface that I have seen people getting suckered into riding them to small. I found when to big it was hard for the board to break the surface tension if that makes sense. What I have surmised is that these seem to be the right size at chin heigth just what I have noticed. Obviously the variable of body weight applies but that is what I have seen :)Originally Posted by iggy
