Yeh but I think Steve isn’t considering a fish his shorty.
Yes.
I'm happy with wide fishes, but shorties I need to go rail to rail and there just seems a barrier to me at 20 inches.
Might be psychosomatic.
same ... over the years and slowing down a little 19 1/2 is my width. can go narrower down to 19 ... but cannot go wider. feels like i blow to many down the line waves wider, can't be on the face where i need to be etc etc
weird isn't it. 1/2 inch can throw you off your chops

Or trigger your gag reflex.
Like goats milk and warrigal greens smoothies.
I like boards in the 19" to 19.5" range.
But my new 'shorty' is 20.75", I think it's taking the piss a bit.

I reckon as long as it blends well with the overall outline curve and rocker then the number doesn’t matter too much.

I reckon this modernised 80s thruster at 20 wide would go well.
