Looked at the web site, prefer the P1 because I like thumb tails for stability more than squash tails, more power through the wave, though the squash will turn on a dime.

What size you looking at and for what purpose? I like the look of their fish too...

well i have a 7 ft 4 nsp short boardwhich is what iv been using the past few years so i was thinking maybe downsizing to 6 dt 8 ?
im only getting on towards intermediate level so i thought the p1 might be a bit advanced fo me.
im 6 ft and just under 80kg

6'8" is not an advanced board. There are differences in all board designs, but if you are going to order a certain size they are very slight differences between them, so either way you'll be ok.

Call them up, I'm sure they will guide you in the right direction.
