I can't see how you could outgrow that board unless you eat too much cake and double your weight
Not physically....I just don't want to buy something too big in the name of stability then find it hard to control when the wind picks up.

I know. Just kidding.
Over the last years I had a Slingshot Tyrant in addition to the Celeritas most of the time. I ride surfboards for about seven years now. The last three years surfboard strapless only. I use the Celeritas at least 80% of the time.
