Beau did your view on this board change in the remaining days of your trip? I am 5’6 and 70kg and trying to get peoples thought before I pick between the 12’6 or 13′.I am sure I will be happy with either.
Hi John, I’m sure you’d be stoked with either board. At your size, the 12’6 would be a great board and the stability wouldn’t be an issue. The 13′ would be the choice if you want the confidence of stability, but I feel the 12’6 would suit your needs.
