Hey everyone, just thought I would throw this out there to confirm my thoughts, I have the opportunity to buy an immaculate Avanti for a good price, I usually ride a 9'10 speed but haven't been in the water for 4 months because of a shoulder reconstruction, I'm now tipping the scales at 127 and 6'3, thought the avanities would be good to get back into small waves and a bit of glide? Thoughts?
The Avanti is a really good big man board. Surfs great for a huge board... I rode mine up to 8' and paddled the flats a lot as well. Nice board.... but heavy if not the carbon model. Don't let it hit you!
