I Would really like some advice on what size AllWave I should be looking at.
I am 67kg and would like a board that will cater for some flatwater cruising/fitness as well as some small surf.

I came close to buying a 9'2 Prowave based on an excellent price, but maybe I was getting to ahead of my abilities and requirements.

Any advice would be great.

Have you had much time on sup? On ur weight def no bigger than 8'10... If more surf than river 8'6.

Not much time at all....I was loaned a 10' Mana some time ago but that was only for a couple of days.

im 98kg, 6'3 and i only use allwave in surf. im selling my 9'2 to get an 8'6.

Rule of thumb with the Allwave seems to be "one size smaller than you first think" (I have the 9'10 but never thought I'd be on a sub-10 board)

Hey a noodles. No I haven't ridden the 8'6 yet. I rode an 8'10 pro wave 118l and while it was ok.... It was a bit of a battle. Also rode an Fone in 8'6 x 30 same as all wave but 5 litres less. It was a bit of a struggle but surfed really well. I'd say the stable AW outline and 130 litres should do the job.

Only problem now is I took my wif out today on the 9'2 for her first paddle.....moved it.... Wants to keep the 9'2 .. Arrrggghh. My plan is being destroyed.... Unless I have both
