Surfboard for a 260 pounder.....

Postby ItsPatry » Tue Mar 29, 2016 5:09 pm

Hey guys. Gonna TRY to keep this short and sweet. I always rode a 8ft walden magic model until I got to highschool. I got pretty big playing football and outgrew the 8ft. I got a custom board made, 9'9 log. It's been a blast riding that. I live in Maine so I weigh even more with my winter suit on. Anyways... I'm headed to Costa Rica and want to purchase a smaller board to bring with me, and to also ride on big days up here. I'm having trouble finding a good board to fit my needs. I'm a 6'3 260 football player, struggle right?? I looked at the Firewire Addvance in a 7'2 or 7'6. That's really all I've been able to find for purchase online. The local shops don't carry anything like that, and I can't get a custom board made in time. Any ideas?
