Long Fish vs Mid Length

I have been having an absolute blast on this 7'4 'Quad Royale' from Doc Lausch, since ordering it and picking it up in July.
Have had it out in everything from waist high beach break slop to a few feet overhead at the local reef and it just flies in all conditions.
Super stoked on it!

bump. 7'3 stamps long line tkf ordered for summer.
I busted out the 6-10 longfish yesterday after not riding it for a year.
3-4' waves, soft reef spot and it worked so good.
I can almost duckdive it with the fishy nose but that wide tail and long rail line gets it going quick.
Was gonna sell it casue I wasn't riding it, but it's gonna have to get back in the rotation. So fun.

Trio of long-ish fishes. All 7' with wildy different takes on the design and feels on how they ride. The DVS is lightest, then the Machado and the ETC.
7' Machado thunderbolt Seaside & beyond with S wing 520's. 7' Dick Van Straalen full carbon fibre rocket fish with concave texture deck and full length hard edge on rails with Alkali DVS twins.
Then locally made ETC 7' with tri plane into double concave bottom, incut rails in back 1/2 made from eps over paulownia with Japanese print on the bottom with S wing mid keel 470's as fin choice. The ETC is not mine...belongs to a chap I know who gave it to me to test ride so reign in the tail block outrage.
All 3 boards are 44-45L. Yes that nose on the DVS is a total mind melter when paddling it. Call the leash string popo.

Longfish are stupid. They’re ugly and they don’t make sense as surfboards. Stop being weird
edit: i’m sorry longfish. You’re alright. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Maybe blind folks with no hands are all about you.

You have lot of fish. Someone taught you to procure fish rather than giving you a fish, I imagine.
I have a 5'8", a 5'11" and the 2 x 7'ers. Then a 5'10" I don't ride any more. Is that a lot?
I only ride em not eat them so catch and release!
