Postby RustyG » Mon Feb 18, 2008 5:54 am

my roommate here worked at the aviso shop so i'm getting a major discount on a board. i'm 6' 2" and 200ish lbs and was looking into aviso's tim bessell eliminator shape. its 6' 8", 20" wide and 2.5" thick. was wondering if that would be the board for me.

Otherwise, way too small.
