Hi all

I currently have a Starboard Atlas (12' x 33 x 236L) and while it is a great first board, I'm looking at something more dedicated to flatwater/touring on rivers and lakes. I'd class myself as reasonably proficient, but certainly no expert and have not landed on my ass too many times.

At present the only two possibilities I can find are the Starboard Touring Carbon (14' x 30" x 288L) or the Fanatic Falcon Carbon (14' x 30" x 317L). I'm open to any and all other suggestions.

I'm 135kg.

Initial enquiries on the Starboard touring is they may not bring the Carbon model into Australia frequently or at all, and given the Fanatic board is hollow, I may kill it given my size.

I'm highly confident I'll handle the step from a 33" board to at least a 30" board and happy to consider narrower options if there is a very good, suitable board.

Can the wider more experienced SUP community give me some suggestions on anything else I could consider?

Thanks!
