Measurement around 146cm - perhaps even bigger.

Needed as a 2nd board.

Try a Cardboard Glide 139 x 46. Great light wind board, light enought to throw around. I can have a good day on a 12 mtr in about 11-12 knots.

I have a 215 bic airflow twintip for $150 ono... this will get you going in no wind :-)

must say its closer to a stand up paddle than a twintip but you dont arf get some looks when you take it to the beach :-)

Slingshot Glide149

But there's a reason you wont find a 2nd hand one!

I have an EXT143x48, I wouldn't say it's the perfect light wind board, if you take the fins off it gets a lot better, but its a good allround board 8-40knots with good light wind for a heavy guy. I have had an ext138x46 too and the difference in low end of the two is about 1 knot low end.

08Kiters,

Have a look at the Airush Protoy Exile-L, it's 135 x 47. A truly sick board to ride in light winds. It jumps well, is easy to freestyle and is a great upwind board in light wind.

Another board you wont find in the seabreeze ads usually. Hard to beat!

Good winds,
