New board help

General Discussion

Can anyone suggest some good dimensions for my next project,

Where i live our waves are slow and lacking in power, Typical speed around 9 to 10 mph with max period of about 9 sec, With this in mind i want to try for the perfect board for these conditions and any suggestions would be great.

I was thinking 6`3 21" centre with a wide nose and tail, and with a relaxed rocker maybe 4.5" nose 2" tail.

Im 5` 8" and weigh around 78 kilos

As always any help greatly appreciated…

Ill do a thread of the build…

It will be a Balsa Compsand…

Something like that?:

No, thinking short and fat along the lines of CI biscuit…

if you know you want st biscuit, why not just plain copy that board?

Less surface means less easier planing

more rocker is slower, so 4.5 nose 2 tail is good start, high point at center

make a flat bottom with hard edges, just like bert

cheers

Something a little more fishy than egg (6’3" straight line measurement):
