we are the same in height and weight...and country haha. I do not get out as much as i used to so i am not running courses anymore and i am horribly unfit for skiing too. I ski at 30-32 mph depending how adventurous i am feeling on the day. I am currerntly on a 69" HO Carbon Omni and love it but some alternatives that i have had good runs that would be worth a look are:

Connelly V

KD Krypton

2016/2017 Radar Katana 67"

They are also slightly wider and sit higher in the water and still have a good edge to them if you still want to have a push with them too. I haven't ridden the Radar Union yet but will hope to get a demo on one some time this summer if i can. Hope this helps a little

I got to meet Eddie once while out at Radar for a short time. He was such a welcoming person and filled with knowledge and stories that were nothing short of amazing. He was also that person that loved everything about this sport and encouraged everyone to be involved and enjoy every moment of it. He is one of those people that made such an impact without having to do much.

To his family, I am sorry for your loss and prayers to you all
