Hi Green Tea

I surfed an 8'10" Skate for a few years. It was fast and stable. A good board for smaller waves and picked them up easily. I felt a bit out of control on bigger waves ( over shoulder high). Although I have not surfed on the Shroom it might be a better groveller for smaller waves. Creek can likely give you a more informed answer as he has surfed both boards and knows them well.

Thanks guys.

I'll have at look at both of those recommendations.

Hi Supthecreek,

Thank you for posting the video. I have watched it many times before, great clip.

I live in Victoria, Australia. We get lots of cross shore days at this time of year.

I've been SUPing for 15 years, all surf. I've been thinking the Skate for the smaller messier conditions. I've found boards around the 100L to 110L suit me best.

Cheers

I agree with you Mike3217.

I used to ride a fish occasionally when I could still prone surf. I'm looking for some nostalgia.

Cheers
