Just being polite here Jabba, I have no glue on the breaks you have mentioned however Fireballs 9 to 9'3 is on the small side for your weight. If your into progressive
riding stick with the Fireball but go 9.6 or 9.8 x 23 1/4 x 3 1/4 custom.
Even better talk to a long standing shaper and ask them what you want and he should be able to point you in the right line. That's my shot fired

Hey bro why not go the whole hog and get a 11 or 12ft single fin classic....will make the summer slop super enjoyable and you will be getting any wave you want

Saw 2 just recently that were like that, both were surftechs, one was an 11ft Hawaiian Pro designs second had down at dripping wet in Manly for around 800.

The other belonged to a dude just coming out of the surf at Longy, I think it was a Pearce Arrow or a very similar name.

I recall being so shocked by it that I said to the guy, "christ, that's got some volume"

I had to laugh because his immediate reply was "look at me mate, so have I".

The HPD was a pin tail but the Arrow thingy was a really big square tail.

There's a couple Arrows around Manly - there's a really nice dark green tinted one so nice - I've got to figure out how to tint epoxy.

Thats a nice board might look into that one
summer fun board very nice!!!
That has to be the wrong Volume by the way

At 124 Kg I have been riding my 12ft Munoz glide .
Great at catching them early but not a nose rider.
People are always comenting on it's size, it slots really well in 2ft-3ft surf ,haven't
ridden much bigger with it.
It's dimentions are 12x26x4.5.
There is one second hand at Dripping wet Bondi.

True ,it was one of the first boards used for SUP.
It was not it's intented use or build IMO.
If you can handle late take offs then you dont need that much volume.
