Hi guys
I just bought a 2016 secret weapon 5'2'.
I'm able to ride a normal twintip but I just want to try riding wave.
I'm just not sure if I bought the right size for me.
If I have to get the 5'6' instead??
I'm 84 kg(185 pounds) and 6 foot tall.
Is anyone out there so kind and with similar experience that can advise me??
Thank you so much in advance
Daniele

Okay, thanks.
Anyhow, do you think 5'2' it's the good size for me?
Thank you

small board for small waves
this is not a light wind board for 12 knots and below wind speed
you will know if the board is to small for you when you get on it.
cheers
