thx everybody, i ride a 6'0 dumpster diver, but it was sliding and bouncing on some of those bigger set waves the last few weeks, i have an older 6'6 but was thinkin something a little bigger to drop right in and bottom turn
if you ride a 6.0 dumpster diver, going to 6.8 is a major increase in overall length and volume. even with a 5/3 on. 6.4 or 6.6 semi-pro sounds about right.
