Hi Donis,
The most versatile performance shortboard I make is the G-4.e.
This board generates incredible speed
in small waves, yet holds in and surfs fast
and responsive in the pocket on the
more powerful and hollower days up to overhead.
The ideal dimensions for you would be 6’0” x 18 3/8” x 2 ¼” rounded squashtail or thumbtail.
I do several different constructions types, but I think you would be
most stoked on the Proxy custom
flexible epoxy
technology…..this has the same flex pattern and
feeling under your feet as an ultralight poly board,
but with three to five times the strength of a
standard poly board.
It differs from the Resin 8 boards in that the Proxy still runs very clean even in bumpy or textured conditions where the Resin 8 boards tend to like the perfectly glassy days, but become very popcorny/ on top of the water bouncy feeling and temperamental in any bit of textured conditions or offshore winds….they also tend to suck in water when dinged which the Proxy does not have that extreme water absorption issue like the Resin 8.
Please feel free to ask any other questions you may have. I know you would be stoked on a magic Proctor G-4.e Proxy. Looking forward to your reply,
Aloha,
Todd
