anyone recon i could get a sarboard whopper to the tello islands

Had to look up Telo Islands...looks like a great place......... and hey, that's a long way! If you were going to do that... Id be choosing a board better suited for long distance paddling though! You might be able to find out if you can hire a board while there? If you are staying in a lodge - they seem to be set up for surfing of all kinds....www.worldsurfaris.com/surf-trip/telo-island-lodge?gclid=CjwKEAiAk8qkBRDOqYediILQ5BMSJAB40A5UUSpLRqdBC2GD4vS3DC6FlXhF1wsikIViWOTgW59EaRoC3y3w_wcB

Email them and they will advise but I reckon you might be stretching the boundaries!?

Last time we were there they had a heavy 9'+ McTavish which kinda did the job, but I think it cost $25 AU per session.

Kev Telos is a pretty mechanical passive waves , you won't struggle like at home so you really don't need a whopper. What they mean by pre arrange is ring the airline and check if they carry a big boards. It's the connecting flights that are the killer as they are small planes with limited cargo area. 3m as a general rule is fine but Jetstar drop down to 1.8m on their small planes but if you ring them and tell you have a big board they will put it on another flight to link up with your connection. So leave some extra time between transfers.
