Hi newbie hear Iv been paddle boarding for about a year know on flat water I want to venture out in to the waves I'm 6'5 145 kegs I'm currently ridding a hobie 12'2 32" wide it's about 230lt that floats me fine a have no problems paddling around in the flat water but when I go out in the waves I can't get up long enough to catch a wave Iv spoke with a few people about it and there telling me the board isn't made for surfing and not wide enough for me I 'm tossing up between getting the starboard Avanti or blue planet boss or sumo can anybodyy out there help me with any of these boards

Regards sean

One of these would work for you.. 9'8"x 34"

Avanti is 36 inches wide . i have one of these and will never sell it. Better to be looking at it than looking for it.

Im 130kg was upwards of 140 that found anything 32in plus is fun i am riding the starboard whopper which is 34 in wide

mickyj is there any difference between this years and last years model apart from the price difference this years being cheaper

I have sold a few Avanti's and Boss's through my shop.

Both of these boards will suit your requirements well, the Sumo is 40" wide which is a little hard to comprehend.

We also sell Whoppers and have them in our SUP school fleet, as The Whopper is only 171 litres I would be going for a new board over 200 litres in volume.

Another vote for the Avanti...

Another for the Avanti nice shape surfs good for 36' wide. No nothing of the BP so canot comment but 40' wide seems extreme!

at 145 - Avanti.

I started on an Avanti at 135kg.

Loved it. Wished i still had it.

I've come down a lot in volume since then, but i really loved that board...

Picked up a Avanti the other day loved the board first time in a longtime I never got wet I'm going to take her out in the surf on the weekend board sits a little low in the water but that will change once I slim down a bit
