So basically Ive narrowed it down to the 3ds or axis.

I want good wake to wake pop, and a nice edge, not overly locked in though. I'm really leaning towards the 3ds, but with a continous rocker is the pop any good? It seems like a nice solid board, good with edging, ect ect.

I just need some personal feedback yo.

The 3ds is overly locked with the fins that come on it, unless that's been changed for 2008. But if you get a 3ds and put on some smaller fins, like i just replaced mine with .8's. It's perfect. It gets going fast and will shoot you into the flats. I don't know bout the axis

I've ridden the Axis, not the 3DS. The Axis gets pretty locked in, more than the other '08 LF boards. It still slides just fine, but it really holds an edge. I'm riding the Lyman right now and I love it. It gets on edge real good, but is pretty loose when just riding around.

The 3DS now the Pulse comes with .07 fins now. It's a great board.

Pulse or sub 6 with smaller sized fins is great ride.

I rode the axis last year and thought it was pretty loose. Apparently Im the only one who thinks that. It had massive pop (more than my substance) but was pretty slow. Havent ridden the 3DS

I ride the axis and i love it. It has really good pop and really holds and edge. But you just need to try and ride both if you really want to know which one you will like more.
