    I just did some google research -- NVR is 5'10" 160 lbs. That makes his guild factor 0.37 for most of his boards here (28L-ish) and 0.41 for his biggest board.

      Thanks for that. Just came on to see what weight he is. Great insight 🤟 some big swell on the way to the Ments, wonder how many boards will last

      I think he has a weight range. And 160 is pushing it, perhaps when he was a bit younger.
      He seems to carry a bit more weight when he's back home to lose it during his longer stay in Indo.
      I'm roughly the same height and a weight range of 175 lbs (around Christmas) to as low as 161 lbs and I surf a tad less volume.
      My typical Ghost is a 5'11 x 18 3/4 x 2 5/16 26.9L This is for head high to double overhead
      Shadow 5'10 x 18 3/4 x 2 5/16 26.5L (daily) PU and DarkArts in 5'9
      Phantom 5'9 x 18 7/8 x 2 3/8 27.2L EPS
      Ghost 6'2 x 18 3/4 x 2 1/2 28L Overhead and up
      The Tank 6'8 x 19 x 2 1/2
      I can cover almost every wave in Bali and Indo with this quiver. The good thing about Pyzel's is they have specific ranges in which it works and changing in between them is fairly easy without too much adjustments. Especially the Ghost family. Hence why I didn't bother to try a Radius of High line, although the Radius is appealing to me. But I rather extend my big wave quiver than mess about with my daily quiver.

      Plus you have to factor his skill level which subtracts 3-6 L from the volume calculation.

      Can you explain the 'Guild Factor' to me? It's a new one. Sounds like a weight to Litre ratio of some kind?

    Great video! Thanks to the author of the channel for this fascinating video! It is interesting to see how people live in other countries! It is very important to know foreign languages on such trips. I would like to recommend to all travelers a practical guide to learning foreign languages by Yuriy Ivantsiv "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign languages". This book contains a lot of useful tips on how to learn a foreign language for tourists, students, entrepreneurs and anyone who needs a foreign language in life. There are a lot of good tips on how to solve problems with the language from beginner to advanced level of language learning. It turns out that the traveler only needs to know a few dialogues and you can easily travel around the world! You don't have to spend a lot of time to fully learn a foreign language, you just need to learn what you can use when you travel. I wish everyone exciting travels!
