Hi,
just wanted to share some pictures. Have been to the North Sea last week but had some bad weather - only sun, no wind, no waves. I´ve never seen the sea that quiet. Maybe I should take that personally :)
But the weather was nice for some pictures :)
Cheers, Tom

I would go ALL. And see what fit BEST. When making your templates of each boards, you can either add and minus, nose, mid way and tail, to find point your personal designs. I notice their all @ 43-1/2" (H), these sizes from my experiences are BIG waves and shore-breaks boards. Its a nice height @ 43-1/2"(H) to ride. Keep us posted of your picks......
