Hey guys

I used to have a 11'4" Naish Nalu, however I sold it due to shoulder surgery and not really using. I am now fixed and looking at another board. I found the Naish a bit of handful in choppy conditions due to its length it felt the effect of two or three choppy waves at one time.
As the only time we generally get little runners here is when there is wind I want to be on something that can handle chop reasonsably well.
I was thinking along the lines of an Allwave or Mana, but not sure of what size (maybe around the 9 5" mark).
I am 94kg and 6'2" and have been surfing all my life (until I moved up here...).
Does anybody have any suggestions? I am hoping to get down to the Sunny Coast to demo a couple of boards.

I'm about your weight and height and you need to demo the new 2014 9'5'' Mana.. It's an awesome board for someone our size.

Try the JP 10'2 Fusion

You will like the width in chop, has plenty of volume for small runners and is a ball of fun
