Biggest Wave Ever Surfed

António Tramm says:

Hi , I love your show, it's very educative for dude like me, I'm in conflict, my daily board is a pyzel slab 6.2 34.7lt, I don't know if I buy a 5.11 with 34lt or a 6.0 with 35.6 carbon wrap, I'll use the short round as summer board

I'm in doubt because everybody say that carbon warp flouted more than PU, so should I buy a a 5.11 with 34lt or a 6.0 with 35.6?

Thanks

Tramm

Hey, I am thinking of getting this board but I really don't know what size is good for me. I am 5,10 150lb. I surf Sebastian Inlet in Florida and want something to replace but still have the carving power of my shortboard. I surf waves from 2-6ft. I think I want the 5,7 but I'm not sure. What size do you think? ( Im good fitness and at the intermediate+ level.)

Hi guys, wondering what size Short round I should get I'm 5'9" and 87 kegs currently riding a 6'3" Mark Phipps about 33ltrs and am looking for a good summer board for the East Coast waves what size do you recommend in the Carbon Wrap?

Phil Pope says:

Thanks for another great review. How durable is the carbon wrap eps tech? Similar to a standard PU board?

Hey Benny, great review.
I am 5'11", 190 lbs and 45 years old, and surf mostly beach and point breaks in San Clemente.  I have surfed for over 30 years, but recently went through a 7 year longboard phase and want to get back into short boarding.  I bought an Ellis 6"6' 21 1/4 x 2 5/8 quad which worked beautifully to get me into waves, but after a while I felt I was ready for something more high performance, so I bought a CI Fred Stubble 6"0' 19 x 2 3/8 28.7L. Unfortunately, I am having trouble getting the feel and driving the board, and think I may have taken too far of a leap. 

I am thinking of getting the Short Round in a 6"0' 20.5 x 2.56 35.6L as my new all around high performance board. Many sites and shops are telling me to go a few inches shorter than myself, but given my situation, I think a 6'0" to 6'2" would work better. I would rather have too much board and sacrifice some performance than have too little board and a lower wave count and frustration.  Just want to have fun surfing again.

Any thoughts?
