Board size and type
Well hello all my old friends. No unfortunately I'm not back in Victoria, I'm in the second best wind spot in Canada. Kingston Ontario. I've recently got back into windsport through winging. Starting on a SUP as well as ice skates in the winter. I've now got a nice 2200cm slingshot foil a 6m wing a wetsuit and no ice on the lake. I'm looking for some real world advice on board size and volume. I'm now 210 lbs and am looking at something in the 140l. However there are some used board in that 100 to 120 range. Anyone have any advice. I can get a used fanatic bee 120 l for a decent price or a new jp board at a good discount.
Thanks

Re: Board size and type
Nice! I grew up there and it is a bit like Victoria on the Great Lakes. Fanatic Bee would be a good learner board, especially for someone of your manly heft! But I don't see them often in the swells. If you've got a line on a new JP, I'm a big fan. I'm still riding a 2019 JP Foil Pro and it's always one of the first lifting off the water in the lightest of winds. A new JP will likely be even better!
Enjoy those afternoon winds!
