I’m a 66yo 75kg, surfing since 1970 and started doing paddel surf ocassionally some years ago.
Now I’ve more time available, and i’m getting more into paddel surf when waves are smaller, up to 5 feet. My surfing place is beach breaks with mushy to vertical days and I do surf/paddle surf mostly in spring and summer.
Now I’ve a 2013 8.6 allwave 30” wide and 130ltr and find it quite unstable on choppy or windy conditions and not very agile in surfing. IMO it’s all due to boxy rails. So I’m looking for a new board
My holy grail is the 2023 Fanatic allwave 8.7 31” and 135lts. Most volume in the middle for stability, an inch wider and much finer rails for more radical turning. BTW 2023 was the last year for Allwaves boards after Fanatic went Duotone.
Anyone experience in that board? last new boards are on offer now and i need a quick decision.
Any alternatives for my characteristics, long surfing experience, a few years on my body and intermediate paddle level
