Which are for you the biggest size to design a board fo r light-light wind condition.....165x45 - 170x50......

which are the rationale to be consider?

Thanks
Enzo

Sizes you mentioned both sound good. 160X50cm is the magic number with ply doors, bigger, smaller, wider, skinner, shape are preferances, thats why you get 2 or 3 so boards out of a piece of .5 in AC ply.

So are you saying that 170x50 for very light wind sound good for you? I'm little heavy (90Kg)

And Bigger, what do you think?

Don't forget the most critical length determinant.

"will it fit in your boot/trunk"

Personally I am a light wind tryer and feel that much over 150 is not necessary if coupled with wide (>45). ( I am 95kg).

which are the size of your board?

Thanks

If you are asking me, my Ply board is 148 x 48.
It was longer but I had to buzz it because it didn't fit the boot (I don't think it affected the light wind level)

ps. I have just ordered an Underground 152x44. Mainly because after years of riding plys I just decided I wanted a production unit with the lighter weight etc.

My largest board is 140 X 40. I don't like riding the really large boards. This board is perfect for light wind and if the wind picks up, I can still ride it without any major problems. Just make it square and add little rocker.
I can go out with this board in 8 knots with a 16 spittie and have fun and go upwind without any problem. Also perfect for gusty conditions, because it's still good when the wind picks up.

Hey Lord,

What is your weight cos that's a critical factor?
At 95 kgs I use a 142/40 UG as my main board but my big board gets me going way earlier.

I understand a 140/40 could be a lightwind board for someone lighter.

I'm 75 kgs.

Hi,
I'm 90kg, and I've also a 144x40 board, this is the reason because i'm looking for a bigger board

Which technique do you use for paiting your board?
