lol... if it is its a damn good one
i talked to a guy today at my board shop n he actually checked it out for me he said it is a hyperlite motive that they made some small mods to to sell to chain stores like dicks sporting goods and overtons couldnt tell me more then that though except has steep rocker n should provide plenty of pop also offers large potential for customized ride due to all three fins being removable

tweeder_21, I couldn't find any information on the board but if you post a pic, i probably will be able to recognize the shape and give you some information on the board. If it is three removable fins then it is most likely the Belmont shape, not the motive. The belmont happened to be a great shape and should be really good for progressing all the way from beginner to advanced tricks. Here is a picture of the belmont. Is this the same shape?

tweeder_21, that happens with a lot of wakeboards. They change the graphic and add a new name or they stop selling the board in board shops and start selling them in big sporting good stores with a different name. A lot of times the rider, in this case Shaun Murray, will keep the name of the board and change the shape although this was the last shape of the Belmont (his middle name). They will also take a board that was a big seller and when they come up with a new shape, they keep the board and change the name. Normally the boards sold in sporting good stores are no where near as good as this board is. If a lot of the cable riders new that this was available, i bet they would go buy them immediately. The belmont was regarded as the best board ever made for air tricks. I recommend taking out the middle fins and only riding with the outside fins. It will provide more than enough traction and save you from some bad face plants.
