Al Merrick for 6'2, 14 stoneish

Postby Bonus » Wed May 16, 2007 2:16 am

hows it going?

Thinking about getting an Al Merrick board for myself, ive got a 6'8 Circle one at the moment which ill be keeping but was thinking of going for a 6'6 Al M. with thinner dimensions. I dont know much about the Alm's and couldnt really find much info on them. Im a intermediate...6'2, 14 stoneish. Cheers :D

They're really good boards, but kinda expensive.
Which design are you looking at?

oh ye sorry lol!......Flyer 2 seems to be the most balanced of them. I was thinking a 6'6 or a 6'4.

If you have a a decent local shapper support him and buy a costum made board for your surf level weight and height and he will propably know the type of boards that fits better the waves you ride.. remember Al only shappes for the pro's the other boards are machine made, do your choice...
