9 - IMO the money size for Rev's for riding options @ +20 - 35.

I'm 150 and ride a 9m REV most of the time. I can make a 9m rev and a twintip work in the 15 -35 mph range. You can fly it above 30 but it's not always fun, nuclear gust dependent!! For the nuking above 30 mph days a smaller size like a 7m REV or better yet a 6m RPM would be loads of fun!!

A 9m, 6m, a twintip and a surfboard seem to be the golden set up for the gorge these days!
