as a stout proportioned human that outline doesn't appeal to me.

if i am to follow the sizing guidelines i'd need a 5'8-5'10 with the volume of the 6'4

"It will help you make the most of your everyday surfs and elevate your surfing performance."

That's great, but would be nice to have a little more insight on the board itself.

For instance, it has a "medium high rocker" - what does that mean?

stoke dims are actually decent for my tall self.

planeshape is a bit narrow for me though.

i wonder how it compares to the 74? looks and sounds pretty similar.

Does anyone make a HPSB for the forever-intermediate, desk-bound, non-abs-having man? Who's got a 5'11" tuned for the guy in his mid-thirties that weighs 180lbs ? The only boards I know of that fit that criteria are usually labeled as being for shitty waves. Or should I just put my beer down and get on the treadmill?

Rusty has talked about actual amounts of rocker in his podcasts before. Here is something I found for what its worth..??..


It would be cool if all shapers started dropping actual measurements / values into their descriptions, but maybe they are being a bit secretive on purpose.

GG seems to do a heap of customs that fit this bill.
Occy's signature JS's appeal.
DHD sweet spot comes in husky sized dims as well as razor ass dims.

Maybe try the Phantom- by all accounts is much more user-friendly than the more HPSB, like say the Shadow.
Or pyzel helpfully makes stock XL versions of his models as well.
