Starboard 2015 Surf Pro 9'0" or 8'5"?

Hi. Can anyone confirm if the recommended max rider weight for the starboard surf pros are pretty close?
I'm looking at getting one for the bigger days, no demos nearby, and at 6'3" and 96-98kg was considering the 9'0" or the 8'5" x 29" surf pro.
Any advice on these sizes from Starboard enthusiasts would be greatly appreciated.....

And there advice was?I,m interested in it as well ;)
