If you weigh this much

Everyday means an intermediate surfer. Newer to hardboards gets more liters. Advanced gets fewer. A cell names a stock size only when that size is close to the starting volume. Otherwise it names the liters and stops.

A shop chart that says “up to this weight” can point at a smaller size than the closest liter match. Their band is wide. This page picks the row nearest the starting volume. Fitness, and whether the waves are soft or punchy, still move it a size.
