Fantastic board !
Ideally suited to better waves of shoulder/head high and bigger. They were made for heavier surfer but have ridden one (72kg) and a very good sup'er on the goldy had one and ripped on it (75kg) so I guess that means they suit medium to extra large surfers in medium to extra large waves. If you surf small to medium waves the 9.3 is waaaaay better, but for bigger surf the 9.6 is the bomb. The subvectors are heavy in comparison to other boards around but this is due to their incredibly tough construction.
great opinion, but here in my location i have the oportunite to by only a 9,6', so i have to explore the 9,6 in smal and medium waves, but in hole waves
either way if you go 3 or 6 you won't regret either
i enjoy de sv 9,6 it is a great board, i really like it it's stable and surf fun greta board... thanks C4
