Mistral pandera long board volume
Question
Hi windlover! I would like to ask if you know the volume of the mistral pandera long board? How many liters is it? Will it be able to carry my weight? Im 245lbs. Will i be able to ride short boards
With my weight? Thank you very much!!!
Answer
Hey Fredrick,
Your Pandera should be around 300ltrs. Plenty of volume to carry you. As for short boards, you will be able to ride them but may need a little more volume than smaller folks. When your abilities are advanced enough to ride short boards, it is not so much the size of the board, just a matter of having enough board for the conditions you are sailing in. I'm 195lbs and have 4 different short boards ranging length of 7'8"-9'2" and volumes of 75ltrs to 105ltrs. Which board I ride depends mainly on how much wind there is where I'm sailing at. Larger guys like yourself just use a little larger sail and ride a board with a little more volume.
Hope this helps.
Keep on sailing,
Windlover
