Looking for recommendations for a step-up for my kid. He's about 6'0/6'1 165 lbs. Current board is a 6'0" 1/2 x 18.82 x 2.34 (28.1 or 4L) Lost Driver, which is a little under stock dims. I watched him take off on a set wave this week that was about double over Duffy and wipeout trying to control his board making the bottom turn. He said the board was going way too fast to turn it. I tried to get him to try a bigger board on our trip, but he was sticking with the Driver as his one board quiver.
What say the ErBB braintrust? Ghost or Blackbird? Probably look around for a used; hesitant to go custom because he's still a growing kid, but may bite the bullet.
