Hi Mate
As no one has answered I will give my thoughts. Go the shorter if you have surf experience. I am 90 odd kg and ride down to 9'.
This depends on what you want it for though and where you surf.
Beach Breaks: Shorter
River: Longer
etc

When you say "Need help regarding the paddle to buy" do you mean paddle 'board' (SUP board) ..?
If it's boards.. I love the new Naish Mana boards.. You should concider them.
I recomend the 9'5" if it's more about the wave performance.. and the 10' if you want a wave board that you can also paddle flat water on with ease.
If it's an Oxbow boards that you intend to buy I reckon go for the 10'6".. I'm sure the 10'6" will turn well.
IMO.. The 9'6" will be hard work coming from the 10'10" Bic.
