I'm looking to grow up from my mini-mal to something smaller and more pointy.

I like the look of the Webber Fatburner 6'6" 19" 2 3/4", but in Clearwater shop down on the beach it is $870!!

I'm 5'10" 90kg and medium build.

I normally surf Secret Harbour, with the odd trip down south and to Bali once a year.

any help would be lovely

Longboards Scarborough have the epoxy SLX Webber Fatburner for around $700 or the Tuflite for just $825.

I have a 6'6 SLX fatburner. Which cost $700 from corner surf in geraldton so $870 seems a bit much.

The board goes good I'm 6'3 and 100kg and the board paddles really easy. Takes off and gets speed easy.
Mainly use it in smaller mushy waves but have taken it out in over head, starts to get a bit loose in barrels. I ride other boards when it gets bigger and sucky (6'5 rusty thruster and 6'8 rounded pin). An afterburner would also be good for down south and bali as it is a bit narrower.

Good luck with whatever you choose
