I agree with Roger. From my own experience I really love wider boards with their easy planning. You do not always even have to use a huge sail. I mostly have nice rides with 7.6 to JP SLW or isonic 127. JP SLW goes planning with 7.6 in 5-6 m/s and there is no big difference using a 9.0.

Try formula gear if you live in a 12knot area!! or @ 72kg i would i would get a 85cm wide slalom or freerace board with a 9.0 maybe, even if you can plane as early with a fuller 7.5 sail, you have no power to go upwind, which is boring if you have to struggle to get back.
