Few pics of my latest board, 8'10 x 29 x 4. weighs in @ 7.4kg with fins and grip.I'm planning on using this as my bigger wave board, I cant see the need for huge big guns (I'm sure alot of people will disagree here) and I may be proven wrong if I can't paddle onto em, time will tell? Most of the bigger waves I surf aren't super fast or hollow

Hey Cam,

I love the plan shape with the pin tail and full nose.

What sort of rocker does it have?

You should be right with that pulled in tail shape as long as you have anice rail line and can generate enough paddling speed you'll be laughing

Yeah!......that will work well for larger stuf.
Don't worry about paddling speed, the short boards can sprint to catch a large wave....it may just depend on how late you want to take the drop...lol
Good job
Cheers
