I surf Monterey/Moss Landing area and go to MX several times a year. Just got back from 17 days of small, fun surf. I have an on-going debate with myself regarding surfing overhead waves with longer boards. How many of you stick 100% with longer HP boards in overhead surf? Or, do you do like I do and pull out shorter boards (for me 7' to 7'6"). I have to work harder catch waves and to ride as well on short boards but I don't get pummeled, as much getting caught inside with my longer boards. At what point do you say it is too big for my long boards and again, how many of you stick with it 100% of the time on long boards for big surf? Do you hang with it on the double overhead days?
