5'10" x 20" x 2 3/4 33.4L
Great board, feels very fast and fishy feeling but holds in the pocket like a more conventional rounded pin performance board. I actually have 3 of these in different sizes and this one is just a little too big for me.
No dings aside from a small repair on the nose that looks pretty good.
I don't live in the bay but will be around from Sep 15-19 if you'd like to grab the board.
