ok another person asking for more board advice.

I'm looking a board to fit in the middle of my current 2. I've got a 85l Bic Tribal Wave and a Starboard Carve 162 for light wind cruising and for the missus, and hopefully the newly arrived(3wks) sprog, to learn on. Ok i may have changed that by the time the sprogs old enough to lift a sail.

I was thinking something around 105-110l, and more free_style_/wave orientated than freeride. It'll be 2nd hand and probably a couple of seasons old since the new arrival will take more funds than may have been available previously. Current thoughts are something like a Fanatic Skate or Freewave, RRD or JP FSW or even the Twintip or JP FS.

I generally sail at West Kirby or Abersoch, so not particularly big chop and if I pop across to Hells Mouth or Rossy, I've got the smaller board.

I want the board to learn some free_style_, but also want it for my 6.6 or 5.7 and be reasonalby quick planing. I'm 75kg, so would a 97-100l board be a better option or will early planing drop off that quickly over a 110l board?

Any thoughts guys appreciated.

Cheers
Bob
