Ian reviews the Softech Eric Geiselman Flash Surfboard: https://www.boardshop.co.uk/brands/softech-surfboards?style=2011 The Softech Eric Geiselman Flash soft surfboard is new for Spring/Summer 2019. Eric's signature Flash model will make the most of any waves on offer; from onshore mush to shoulder high and clean, the Flash will motivate you to surf and will encourage a fast n' loose attack. The Softech Flash is constructed with an ultra light double sided slick with custom rails unique to the board. The X-Density Core is 100% waterproof and adds structure and stability to the boards flex pattern. A multilayered composite stringer is reinforced with resin which adds stiffness and flex memory which helps the Softech boards perform more like a traditional PU surfboard. The slicks are reinforced with X-Mesh which significantly strengthens the skin and guarantees the boards longevity and structural integrity. The EG Flash performs like a modern hybrid surfboard but with an extra injection of fun which a soft deck board brings. These boards actively encourage a "throw away" approach to your surfing and are a great device to really experiment and push your performance and turns. The Flash is equipped with a three fin FCS II fin system and comes with a set of FCS II SFT fins to further encourage an expansive approach. If the supplied safety fins don't work for you, you can customize your board with any set of FCS II fins! The FCS II fin system eliminates the need for screws or fin keys with its brilliant and simple "snap in" system. Simply insert the front of the fin into the plug and use downward pressure to lock the fin in place! It's relatively short length and high volume make it ideal for someone who wants a fun sized board to use in a variety of conditions, whether you're charging the shore break at your local beach or having some holiday fun in average summer waves. This brilliant little board is also perfect for the lightweight beginner or kid new to surfing, the soft slick deck is far safer than the hard surface of a regular fibreglass or epoxy board, and its small size makes it much more manageable and easier to control in crowded summer waves.

For someone who is 5'10" and weighs 160 pounds, what size would you recommend given that you've ridden it for a while by now for an intermediate+ surfer? Thanks in advance for the help
