Got my 9ft. Steelheader out of the classifieds on this board. Honestly, probably the best $900 dollars i've ever spent(10x42 Swarovskis a close second ). O's says 10 ft. minimum, can't argue, he has more experience on these than I do. But, I've run a class IV in my 9 ft. and it did fine. I think I was pretty lucky finding it for this price, keep looking, ya never know....
