Hey guys - looking for a little advice. 46 yrs old, 285lbs avid surfer and athletic guy for my size - looking to get into SUP surfing on knee to chest high waves here in NJ. I have been flat water paddling for about 2 years on a big ole 12 ft Surftech (12x34x5) and want to take up SUP surfing. Have recently demo'd the 9'10 Finatic allwave and feel like its a little wobbly and lethargic paddling for waves and a heck of a workout just standing waiting for waves. Of the waves I did catch the board seems to "surf" great. Thinking the JP 10'2 x 35 wide body would give me the stability and float while still offering a "fun" maneuverable experience on small to medium sized surf. Any thoughts? have any of you guys tried this board? I really appreciate any advice or help here. Aloha.....and thanks!
