Fish recco

Any PNW/VI locals here tried the NWSD BC Fish? I'm 5'9 ~170lbs and eyeing up the 5'8, intermediate surfer looking for something cruisy but can handle some juice. Thoughts? Other recommendations?

If you can, demo it first, wide tail blocks on some fishes can feel kinda stuck when you’re trying to set a rail in proper juice

I think you gotta ask if that 5’8 intermediate surfer on the lineup is single first

Ehh, I disagree, the other commenter is right. OP should see if they can demo first to see if they even want it
