hey guys looking for advice on the board size on a keel fish most appropriate for my size as i have no clue. I’m a grom 5’11 foot, weighing 60kg, and have been riding a shorter/fish board 5’8, 18 7/8, 2 1/4 but am looking for a keel style of fish surfboard for flatter swells with a bit more foam, i’m a intermediate surfer (pop up, bottom turn, pump down the line) progressing into maneuvers, thanks

Only need to go up a bit in dimensions.....19 3/4 - 20 wide and 2 1/2 thick ...stay same length but keep some foam in the nose and tail
60 kgs your only a flyweight so dont go to thick will be to Boaty.
