    im 6'1 175, and i have a 6'2 alternator as my go-to board, a 6'8 retro fish for small and mush. Im curious if i should get a step up and how big it shuld be, the biggest ive surfed was probably 1-2ft overhead, but i hear RI has bigger surf so i was seeing if i should get a bigger board for bigger surf. Any suggestions? or would my 34 L alternator handle 10-12ft??

    At 10' to DOH I'm moving up to something with a bit more length and volume, and moving away from single concave bottoms.

    The rumor is, when NJShredder isn't benching, he is surfing. Surfing 23 footers. You should PM the pro for advice.;)
