I've just purchased my first board setup and I'm feeling a little sketched out about it as I've read some great reviews as well as some not so great ones. I've been riding two years and this is a big ticket investment for me.

I bought the 2009 Ronix Ibex 144 with LF Vantage bindings and it should be here by the end of the week.

It seems that everyone was happy with the pop and transition capabilities but I've also read that the board delams super quick.

Can anyone give some feedback (good or bad) about this board?

THanks.

The 08's had problems with the UV clear sheets on the top that would start to crack and fade, but it was just aesthetic. Ronix boards are actually really good about not delamming, I've had excellent luck with all of mine so far, and all boards are slider boards for me.

Have had my ibex for two years and love the board. No problems with mine either and I have it in the sun and ride it at least 5 Times a week.

2009 is a really good and aggressive board and I loved mine (actually had the 144 PBV2 up until I snapped her Smile ). Very fast, extremely poppy, but still controllable. Enjoy!
