Flashpoint Board

Post by mwohl »

I'm looking for a flashpoint board. I've been surfing Romo and most recently a Blast board for the past 25 yrs. With a few more years(55yo) and a few more pounds(6'1" 195#) I'm looking for a good performing, better floating board. I'm still getting in the water regularly until my body says no!(hopefully at least 15 years away).

Any advice regarding length width or other specifics before I order my new board!

If you have been riding a Blast for 25 years it must look like crap by now.

Anyway, talk to Hart. He will give you length suggestions but the other dims are state secrets. Trust the man, he knows his stuff.

Oh and I have a 6'2 you can check out if you want to try it. We can meet up for a surf somewhere.
SCRUB IT KOOK!!!

Agreed. Hart knows his stuff and has done me well by talking out shapes by phone.
