Fatboy Boards?

Postby tomcat360 » Mon Aug 01, 2005 6:00 pm

ive been surfing for about 2-3 years on a shortboard the whole way along. im beginning to get my cutbacks down, but now im beginning to sink my 6'3"x 18 x 2 3/16 wrv shortboard. i saw a seven 6'7" fatboy at a shop, i thought it would be good for me(5'11, 170lbs). what do yall think?

Big guy Shortboard

We make a similar big guy / fat boy shortboard

These work great for the bigger guys who ride shortboards and for the new shortboarders looking for a board top get into surfing.

as a thruster I'd pull the wp back more and add more surface area in the tail, it looks more like a mini gun than a big guy board.

as a single I'd go for it, but not as a thruster.
