I have an 82cm & 92cm I'm sure there are several opinions here, and would love to hear them.

Assuming that you care about your wings I would go as short as possible. Also assuming you plan to wing outside of the harbor. I think I used a 68" last I was there.

Most of the local's gear is scratched to hell!

The tides table has not been our friend the last week. Lots of trashed foils because the low tide has been corresponding with the peak winds around 2 or 3 PM. My friend is the Armstrong rep and his demo gear has been coming home damaged. One winger paddled to shore with his foil missing after hitting the reef! Consequently the shorter the better.
