Thanks for all the worthy replies!

Kalama 9'2 and a customized Revolution now are in the pole position.

Kalama quad fin placement is more like a split thruster.

I just ordered the Revolution. 9'x28" 115l with 5 futures fin boxes. Vapor construction. Won't see it for a few months but hoping its a perfect upgrade coming from my 9'2"x30" 126l kalama. The kalamas come as quad plus 1 setups (mine was 5 fcs 2 boxes) and I hated that board as a thruster, but as a quad, I've loved it and insisted in having quads moving forward.

Take a trip to Dana Point and visit the Infinity shop. They usually have a rental or loaner.

BTW, Sunova can modify any of their boards for you. For example chande the width plus or minus, add or subtract volume.

Sunova could make the Revolution as a quad for you. BTW, why a quad on a longboard?

Hey Andreas, look at Starboard's Longboard SUP, the Fanatic Stylemaster, the Infinity New Deal (not sure about Eurpoe on Infinity), and Gong.   Your quad requirement will be a sticking point.  You'll probably find no need for a quad on a longboard though. 

I had a Starboard Longboard SUP - comes in a variety of sizes. Closest to your interest is  9’5″ x 30″ / 124L

I had a 10' x 29" / 123 L.  I see this year they's bumped up the volume on that to 133.  It is very much a longboard experience.  Very nice thin rails.

I really do like the looks of those new JL Destroyer HP’s
Although you said 9.6 max, that  wide 10’ Destroyer HP 145L looks sweet!
Other potentials might be
Kalama 9’2 longboard shape
Bill Foote boards
Blue Planet’s boards are worth a look and most likely will ship to Europe.

I also wonder why Infinity makes an 8'2" x 30 @ 115L - would I notice a big difference stepping down from the 8'5" x 30.5" @ 121L?  Doesn't seem like 6L and 0.5" in width would make a big difference?

I meant to ask why Infinity would make a Blurr in  8'2"x30@115L and 8'2"x29.5"@109L.  I know I shouldn't complain about being spoiled for choice but would there be that much difference?  Do the 6L and 0.5" either way make a noticeable difference?
