  1. I am 6'5" and I weigh about the same.  It all depends on if you have any experience or not.  I have boards ranging from 7'6" to 11' and they all have their strengths and weaknesses.  If you have not surfed before I  would recommend something over 8'6".  If you choose a board that is huge (easy to catch and ride waves) you will have a rough time paddling through the waves to get outside.  If you choose a smaller ( <8'6") board, you will be able to paddle out, but you could have a harder time catching waves.  If you have good balance, or you have snowboarded or wakeboarded, ect, you could get away with a smaller board.  At 110 kg I personally would stay above a 7'6" in a long board shape no matter how good of balance you have.  If you live somewhere with small surf you will need to go with a bigger board.  9' to 10' plus if your surf is usually <3'-4'.


  2. anything over 9ft

  3. 9'

  4. I guess 110 Kilos is around 240 lbs. You are a BIG dude. I weigh about 225 (but I'm fat). You need a fat enough board to float you (3inch+) for decent take-offs. But how long, that's all up to you. My long board is a 9'4", my 6'2" son-in-law rides a 10" when he is longboarding.
