Hi.

I'm going to surfers paradise for 3 days in May, worth flying with a 6.4 short board or it's too short ?

Cheers,

that probably depends on the surf forecast, and if you are 3 feet tall or maybe you are 120kg and normally ride a mal?

180cm/80kg :)

Contact Roy Stewart in New Zealand Tauranga or Mt Maunganui way he has boards that ensure hassle free surfing on the gold coast

at least you need a fish, and if Surfers is shit(like it will be probably), paddle accross to the t.o.s. you will be surprise, never got a bad day over there.

Yeah just your standard shorty should see you through. get out of surfers and get across to straddy for better quality.

If you want to get a wave in SE qld, I would suggest an outboard, but if you can afford it then an inboard is even better.

Because you won't be able to get a wave to yourself with a surfboard.
