Im looking at getting a SUP to help me survive the windless winter ( windsurfer). I want to use the board in small to medium waves and occasional flat water. Pref with a mast foot so I have that option. Ive been looking at the fanatic allwave but Im not sure of what size is best for me ( 68kgs) any advice would be appreciated.

What's the best volume for my weight, I would rather have something to grow into then out off quickly

Sunova Style?

Hey I'm also windsurfer and surfer who has just bought my first SUP, a Fanatic Allwave, to get me through the doldrums. Got the 8' 11" and it comes with the mast foot anchor. I weigh the same as you and find it a great board, (but I haven't tried too many other SUPs). Id certainly recommend it.

Don't put too much emphasis on volume, although you need a certain amount to float you it is more important as to where it is distributed. The All Waves are a great example as they are quite thick and carry the wide point through a fair amount of the centre area. Taking these factors I to consideration makes it quite a large board, volume wise, into a small board. As an example the 9'5 x 32.25 All wave is 170l the Starboard Whopper 10 x 34 is 171l. So very similar in terms of literage but 2 very different boards.
