If you like a board or don't like a board then that is what should matter to you so Do you like it? Most likely it's too small for you unless you have tried it and like it.
So what is worse.... dying or regretting it for the rest of my life? Obviously I chose not regretting it.

What size board(s) where you using during those 20 surfs ? If the board(s) was around the same height or just a bit bigger than 6'8", then maybe okay. But if they were much bigger like 8'0", then 6'8" will be much too small.
Also you just listed the height, max width and max thickness. What about the Nose width, tail width, tail design, rocker, rail design ( taper, full, boxy, 50/50, etc. ). But I am so glad you didn't mention Liter volume.
