I have a 6'1 5 fin "Chile" model which is in between mini merk and shelter models. This board does great in stuff up to 6' and I'm sure beyond but the days of paddling a 6'1 into surf a few feet overhead are coming to a close. I was thinking something in the 6'8 to 7'0 range. Getting in early would be the key, I know they keep up. Click to expand... This is a pulled in speed egg from Jacob Campbell. His evolution of the designs are just incredible and this by FAR is my favorite one and if I may be so bold @Bighouse , one of these in 6'8-7'0 would be exactly what you're looking for. You will still maintain that incredible egg paddling/wave catching platform- and the best fuckin rocker I've ever surfed- but with performance nuances - look closely at that slight single bump tail...(or go e-wing)...that will make it an absolute Ripper. This is what I want when I do go custom. Definitely a B5 So sick
