Here's my quiver

I'm 5'11" 145 lbs, sometimes 155 lbs.

5'10" x 21 x 3" twin-fin fish (rarely used)
Used when its glassy and crumbly.

5'10" x 20 x 2 1/2 twinzer quad fin fish (used somewhat
often)
Also used when its glassy and crumbly.
5'11" x 19.25 x 2 1/2 single fin (used rarely)
I just got it, but I got it for waves waist-shoulder high and really hollow.
5'11" x 19.5 x 2 1/2 bonzer egg (used often)
Used for clean, fast waist-head high waves.
6'0" x 18 3/4 x 2 3/8" small-wave thruster (used somewhat often)
Used for sectiony or closed out surf (to hit the lip)
7'2" x ? x ? single fin semi gun (somewhat often)
As soon as it hits about 8-foot (faces)
9'2" single fin longboard (most often used)
Used whenever it's offshore and glassy, from knee high up to around shoulder high.

I was thinking about getting a 9'6" noserider for the small lined up days. I'm afraid if I bought that, it would be too similar to my 9'2". My longboard is my most often used board and probably my favorite.

I was also thinking of getting a bonzer 6'6" for the overhead days. Right now I'm using the 7'2" single fin for when it gets overhead or any bigger, but sometimes I don't need a 7'2" for 8-foot waves.

Just wanted to see what you guys thought would be good for my next board. The reason I ask is because my parents said I could get any board I want if I got 1st honor roll for the whole year. So far it seems like I'll be able to do it (did it for the first 2 marking periods, only 2 to go)

How about a bonzer/concaved bottomed general purpose thruster?
Gotta have a gp thruster for chest high to overhead.
Good luck on the honor roll, you can do it...

Yeah, that always sucks. Happens to me almost every session. Once all these boards break I'm going to narrow it back down to only 3 or 4 boards.

I surf hollow beachbreak for the most part. Conditions vary a lot though. Sandbars shift. Just your typical average beachbreak though.

When I get my driver's license I'm going to start surfing this left pointbreak a lot more often though. At the moment it's too far away from my house for my parents to drive me.

Problem is, I really don't need a new board. But I can't just let this opportunity for a new board go to waste!
