I'm looking for a board, I'm 6'6" 290 lbs and old. I have a broken body (motorcycle accident left leg, tore knee right leg, etc..) but love to be out in the waves. I've been on boogy boards for year, have rented long boards in the past and had fun with it. I bought a 6 foot foam board to us as a extra big boogy board. which works great. but now I'm buggy to just surf. I was going to buy a torq fun board, TEC M2 XL 8.0x23x3 1/4 with look to be perfect for me, not too long, light, wide enough for me to get up on(wide shoulders) but fun for riding on the knees if it comes to that. But it is being discontinued. I'm in Wisconsin, so fresh water, steep waves short rides. and once a year to Florida, Daytona and Coco Beach. I do have a shop more than willing to made me a board which is what I'm going to do unless some has a better idea.
