will it float me?

So I've decided to step down to a shortboard. I've been riding a 7'5 22w and 3" thick hybrid. I just ordered a 6'7 221/2w 3" thick. I was wondering if anyone has got anything similar. I'm 6 foot and about 200.

Good that you ordered it and then asked if it'll float you

I've got something like that amongst the stack of boards in my garage, and it'll float you. It'll be a whole lot less float and glide than your 7'5 but its still got stacks of volume.

The board I have is something like 6'6 x 22 x 2 3/4 and (at 6ft and 80kg) its more than enough float for me - too much really, and I think of it as my "big small-wave board", but it'll be suitable for you to progress on

Lol well I ordered it but I dpnt think they started shaping it yet. But yeah I can't wait my shoulders are less exvited though

Irrespective of (people and boards) sizes and volumes, when I sit in the line-up with my shortboard horizontal under me, my nipples are just touching the surface (I have small nipples and not dinner plates) if that helps at all.

Just my $00.02 !!

Lol thanks. I guess I'll just have to waut and see where my nipples land
