Which QUAD size for an heavy 92kg rider?

Hi guys,
I weigh 92kg and I ride wave conditions of the adriatic sea...onshore...very gusty wind.... mainly with 4.7.... sometimes 5.7 and 4.0....
I'm hesitant between Quad 81 and 86.....wich the best solution?
Cheers
Henry.

Hi Henry
Yep. This is a borderline one.
Both are great boards.The 86 is amazing for such a big waveboard so don't be afraid of a performance let down of a bigger board, but if you are on 4.7 most of the time, perhaps the 81.
But like you say, if it's very gusty, maybe the bigger board might be the go??
regards
scotty
