sweats said..drc13 said..I can actually add a little bit extra info now as in the past week I picked up a smaller SUP to finally find out if I could feel a difference in surf performance at all.
I went from a 7'10 x 19.5 @110L board to a 6'10 x 20 @95L board (about 800g lighter) so it's not apples to apples with the volume but I can report back even at these early stages of getting used to a new board, it surfs and pumps much better!
I have definitely lost a bit of paddle speed so not sure how it would go in really small conditions but in the waves we had over the weekend I was getting 35 decent waves a session so it's still a wave catching machine.
I don't think I could go all the way down to 5' though but can say I definitely noticed the difference of 1ft shorter and 15L less.
Goodbye 110L you served me very well
Hello to possibly the ugliest eggplant looking board in history but damn it surfs well.
I love my Duotone SLS DW. Pretty much does everything I need. A very underrated board!
Ya i picked one of those up and and pleased with it. bit of a 1 board quiver for supfoil surfing and parawinging
