Ok youve had this question asked 100 times ..but im gonna ask again... I need help! I currently have a bic 10'4 board that i got before christmas..first SUP use mainly in inverloch (gippsland vic) mostly smaller beach breaks there. Im 95KG and am looking for a new board that is lighter (the bic is 16KG) and performs better in the surf, without losing too much stability. I dont get out enough to jump to a board that is dramatically surf orientated...

I was thinking of something around 9'6 to 10 foot and 30-31" wide...what models would be good to look at as I dont have time to test a lot of boards.....thanks in advance

Are the tyrant boards any good???

I've never heard of Tyrant boards.. but I can recommend the 9'5'' x 32'' Naish Mana..

Welcome to the breeze.. You need to drive into Melbourne and demo some boards.

9'5 Fanatic Allwave would be worth a look. JP Fusion in the 10'2 as well. And a guy almost your weight was having a ball on a 10'6 Nalu in crappy conditions at Inverloch on Saturday.
