Keep in mind that we stock these boards so I am a bit biased
I'm 93-98kg and 6'2 and while I have a blast in the surf, I am no pro. I was sceptical that I would be able to paddle this board the first time I took it out given my size however I think largely due to the wide nose with a fairly flat rocker i find this board more stable than many larger boards, this flat rocker also allows it to paddle onto waves that you would normally need a 9'6 or so to get onto with the flat rocker and fairly parallel rails offering amazing down the line speed for a small board. Despite the lack of rocker in the nose the pin tail allows you to sink the tail and pickup the nose for big drops on fast waves. This board has become my go to board for most situations from local Perth mush to cruisey Sanur (Bali) to hollow fast Lacerations (Nusa Lembongan) and crowded Berewa (South Canggu). The same tends to be true of the Honolulu (Hawaii) crew with most of the C4 Waterman staff there gravitating towards this board.
