What board would you ride in these waves?

I've surfed the Ulladulla spot, and Deadman's is about 15 min from my place. I've surfed the reefs next to it many times, but never Deadies itself.

Ulladulla: HPSB works fine for me out there.
"Deadmans": most people ride pintailed slab boards out there. And it doesn't go into deep water - there is a short section of deep water with another slab just down the line. It's probably a bit too heavy for mere mortals to ride a Ghost out there.

Thread drift, sorry: Re flotation and helmet, I bought a Rip Curl impact vest, but never really used it. Should have, though, as I've broken ribs twice just from water impact on bigger days.

And no Deadmans for me, nor Tombies. Too heavy.
