So much for the idea that ONLY a small board can be used for wavesailing...
Thanks for posting the video, excellent and inspiring. |

Actually volume is your friend in waves, and I'm not sure I know anybody
who wave sails who thinks a 65 ltr board is a good idea (unless it's
a 101 pound woman). Most wave sailors I know go about 10 ltrs larger
than what they would use in Gorge chop.

More particularly, in the video they are talking about a 100 liter board. JP wants to use it and he is a fairly small guy, I doubt he would normally use a 100 liter board in waves.
Now Robby is about 190 lbs, so a 100 wouldn't be that big really, but I doubt from his conversation that he would use it very often in waves.
Finally, I hear from folks that my 100 liter or even 104 is too big for use in waves, but apparently JP could make it work. Now I'm a heavyweight so 104 is no problem at all in waves. But I do think my 116 JP Allride would not work in waves but maybe I'm wrong about that.
Add; Jason is listed at 178 lbs. |
