board volumes

Postby vandangos » Sat Sep 26, 2009 8:27 pm

im looking at getting a new board and have been looking at volumes of board (in cu.ltrs) does anyone know of a calculator online or something from which you can calculate the corrent volume for you? as im quite a big guy its hard to find boards with the correct amount of float, if anyone could help me out that would be great, or if someone could calculate it for me that would be great my dims are... 6ft 2, 15 1/2 stone (very athletic) so can get away with smaller boards than you may think.

cheers, karl

wow, you are going to pour your own foam and shape a board? If not, maybe ask us to recommend a size for you: what are you currently riding and what size and how good are you on it? Others will chime in.
