Hi Gotwaves,
I have a PSH 12ft gun, I am 6ft and 110 ish kgs. Weight helps with this board so does the ability to be mobile. You have to move all around the deck from tip to tail if you want this baby to sing for you.
I often take off with 5 toes almost on the nose on this board to get down the face and then have to race back to rip the bottom turn.
Funny thing is when I get on my 9'4 I do the same thing and it works a treat just 3ft of board less to travel.
I like the board really lose so I ride it with FCS PC7s all round in a truster configuration.
This set up allows me to really throw the board around.
Yesterday in shoulder high slop I could easily get the board into big garcefull cutbacks, landed a couple of nice floaters and got 2 spanking nose rides at mach 10 down the line.
Casso at mambo was doing the sweetest slow mo laybacks on his 12er poetry to see ( I'm still working on theCasso layback, works more for me as fall off at this point as I dont bend in the places casso does).
