I have tricky question wich could turn into a suggestion for your reviews.
Everything starts from a concepts that it is not often mentioned in reviews: THE LENGTH OF THE BOARD COMPARED TO THE STANCE OF THE SURFER (Distance between feet, when the back foot is over the pad and the front foot is in a confortable but stable central position).
Beacause you have so much knowledge and skills in explaining boards, i'll ask you: How can we understand if the distribution of the volume of a board (based on the shape) is good for our stance? Expecially if we need volume...
Example: I love the LOST ROUND NOSE, but i need volume (consider me as a average fitness guy and average surf skils - 80Kg 176cm) ... there's no point to buy a RNF 6'4 or 6'6 right? this is intuitive but which is the limit??
I thought 6'0 was ok and i bought it. This board helped me a lot in restarting surfing after an ingiury but, was probably too long, in fact the main volume distribution was just after my front foot (towards the nose). I felt unconfortable cause i was pulling the tail too much into the water avoiding the wave to push me properly.
What did I do? I sold it and i bought the same lost RNF but 5'7. It was perfect!! my body was just above the board with a perfect distribution. I have a strong skateboarding background so how can you immagine i felt good with such a short board. Then, the opposite problem, years later i gained weight and i struggled with the volume! it was not enough anymore.
What's the point of all of this long and boring story?
NOW I'M AFRAID TO BUY A BOARD HAVING A SUITABLE VOLUME FOR ME (ROUGHLY 38/40 LITERS) BUT TOO LONG TO HAVE MY WEIGHT WELL DISTRIBUTED OVER THE BOARD SHAPE WHEN MY BACK FOOT IS ON THE GRIP.
I know it sound i stupid point but. what can i do in this case?
How can I understand that the volume distribution is correct compare to my natural stance?
should i just change shape?
If i go to the manufacturer websites this concept it's hard or impossible to find.
Can you help me?
maybe at the end of the review you can say for instace "this board should be 2 or 3 inches shorter than you to have a great stance to volume distribution based on knees to over head waves" or "this board is shaped to be 3/4 inches longher than you" (something like this...i gues would be a CRUCIAL information for the odience expecially if they are far from a surfshop you can just buy online without even touch the board)
THANKS A LOT AND SORRY FOR THIS LOOOONG COMMENT!!!
keep ong going you're helping us a lot!
Was wondering if i could get your opinion on a few things.?
Firstly, I'm looking for a board to surf here in NSW for those days its 6+ feet.
im 190cm (6'2-6'3), 90kg.
i usually ride a Chilli rare bird, 6.0' x 20', its nearly 33L. Goes really well for me until it hits 5 foot plus and starts to feel i bit small for my height.
What size Round up do you think would suit me? I'm thinking of stepping up to the 6'4(36L).
Would be riding this board on big days on point breaks and reefs around here, intermediate skills.
Any help would be appreciated. Also, whats the rocker like on these compared to the dhd sweet spot 2?
Cheers, Mick
Im from Cádiz (south spain) and im between low and mid level surf.
I wan to to change my board, this looks amazing, but i don´t know if this board is only for mid-high waves and for tube riding, waves that we haven´t here.
Is this board good for me and the waves i have here? im 1,77 and 70kg so i was looking the 6,2
Maybe another model of lost?
BTW....Love the channel....
