how wide can a board still qualify as a performance board
hey guys

in your opinion for a 92/95 kgs fella looking for a performance board ( i dont want to go below 120 liters ) so most of the boards will be over 30'' wide! but im worried that at that width you cant really shred it...the thing is all major sup makers once we reach a certain volume for really heavy guys or not so skilled have to go wide, the flow 8.10x31 from sunova, the smik spitfire 8.8x31.5, the b-line infinity 8.8x31 etc just to name few but you got the idea..

so how do you shred board over 30'' wide? good skill ? but if you have good skills i guess you woudnt be riding a 31'' wide board ! you stick to a narrower board but with more thickness to compensate for the volume? but then you lose the nice thin rails that are integral to the performance mix !
most of the pics and video we see on internet/forum are from the smaller performance models 7'2 to 8.'2 size approx, but you dont see a lot of shreding made with the larger models.

so can you still call a large board over 30 wide a performance board or you have to challenge yoursel to below 120 ltrs volume board to thrully feel the performance side of a sup surf board?

just interested by all fellow sup riders experience;

cheers

Another fun aspect of the Sunova speed
Not only does this board tick all my boxes for power surfing but it can be great fun in the playful softer beachies.drive.google.com/file/d/0B3mpYxi3FTWfNHFQRnNaWm96Ukk/preview
