    Im about your weight and ride a 6 4 dom. Paddles well, I believe I could probably go to a 6 2. Stick with the 6 4 and your not going to regret it!!!

    Really.... I was thinking of going a 6'5 el feugo but apparently they are an old model and the world has moved on a little....even so was still gonna get a demo and try it out.
    What were you riding beforehand? What was your experience?

    I'd second the option to play around with the fin setup. That should help you with the "missing sections" problem at least. I think paddling will come as you do it more.

    the el fuego is a solid solid shape and it will be in our quiver forever. Don't think that the world has moved on...it certainly is a shape worth considering because it works so well..

    regarding size, i think at your weight Breg, the 606 will suit you better and address the issues that you have mentioned!

    Cheers and hope this helps!!
