hey PPl just got back from a 4 day trip on NSW south coast, great weather and clean 2-3ft surf, surfed cave beach jervis bay for the first time and some good waves where had, looking forward to getting back again soon. Have been bitten buy the bug again after almost a years break, due to work commitments and los of drivers licence etc. Currently riding an 8'6", which I am going ok on, but wanting to go too a full log size board, and eventually teach myself too noseride, looking between 9 - 10'. Something that will perform in 2-5ft surf, mostly beachies Just wanting some opinions/feedback from some of you guys before I buy. Im 6ft 2, 105kg, lanky build.
cheers.

I would look for something in the 9'4 9'6 area.........you will notice a huge difference to what you ride, a totally new style but a very fun one!!!

if you want something to make life easy and all your sessions fun think about going for something in the 2.7 - 3" thickness area lots of volume for added float, however if you want to keep using the skills of your mal maybe go thinner and get a more progressive shape.

mine as a nice nose concave which yu may want to consider for nose riding if thats on your cards.

whats your budget?
