The Torq Mod Fish surfboard range is designed for speed. Its perfect blend of a low rocker, full nose and wide mid-point, with clean well-balanced curves that blend into a traditional Fish swallow tail allow it to thrive in those less than perfect conditions. Built using the most up-to-date Epoxy Technology and using the latest EPS Epoxy Materials, Torq surfboards are both high tech and lightweight - ideal for seasoned surfers.

Looking to buy a Torq Mod Fish since I feel like I'm ready to drop down to a shorter board than the 7'ish boards I've been riding.
I'm 5'5'' and weight 53kg, should I go for the 6'3'' or should I go smaller? I'm a relatively competent surfer but want to improve my turns and board maneuverability. Just worrying that a 5'11'' is going to be too small and reduce my wave count on small wave days? I only surf about 4 days or so a month so wondering whether to go a little bigger to increase the versatility of the board in cruddy conditions?
Actually I am a SUPsurfer but the two past summer I surfed 3-4ft waves in Newport Beach with a 7'2" mini malibu (NSP), and now I'd like to buy a board but where I live the waves are like 1-3ft most of the time and the big waves sessions are big windy waves sessions.
So I wanted to buy a fish surfboard 6'6" or 6'8" so I could surf the small 1ft waves and still surf on windy days.
Could I do that with a board like that ?
I am 5'5" and I weigh 55-60kg
One more question : I saw on torq's site that they also have a "performance fish" which is more expensive. The volume and the technology seems different, but what is the real difference, should I also look for this one ?
