Style vs Body Type

 
 
 
The hull/trimming approach to surfing opens up "style" to virtually any body type.

Take the case of one James "Chubby" Mitchell. Reportedly somewhere around 5'9'' x 300 lbs, he was poetry in motion on an 11 foot, D-fin longboard. Good luck to anyone with those body-dims on a thruster!
