|
|
I'm thinking about buying a new board, when it comes to these things I get really indecisive
I have a LF 06 substance its not to bad but I'm really wanting to try something else
found a shop close by just need to check if i can demo
I don't mind Liquid Force but I haven't had much to do with any other brand
any suggestions?
I'm looking at switching to something with a 3 stage rocker between a 132 and 134. |

my experience is hyperlite gets a lot of attention but not sure it was suited for me. I had a recent era model that rode nice and was durable but it was pretty heavy.
ive had a chance on a few LF and thats what im riding now. a little lighter and more fluid
i hear ronix has a nice line and Id like to try some but are light and somewhat nondurable (just what ive heard, dont have experience) |

| i have to recommend a slingshot recoil. its got a 3 stage and its a 134. it lands super soft and has nice pop. surface tricks are easy with the fins on. overall its an awesome board. you may want to wait till next years version comes out though, i think they added molded in fins. |

I'm a huge fan of ronix's board line, especially for boat riding. Each board is designed to ride with a specific purpose, like the One, which is a littler slower and super poppy, and goes wake to wake really well, or the viva, which goes fast to the flats and lands with a ton of speed, or the ibex which does everything really abruptly and aggressively. The Bill is probably the smoothest edging, popping, and releasing board I've ever ridden too.
And Ronix's boots are on a whole other level from anyone else's. _________________

btw, how much do you weigh... that's a really small size you're looking for, unless you're under 130 lbs... _________________

| My 08 LF Bonifay board is starting to crack on the molded fin. Was thinking abot the new Ronix One Board and binding setup? How is it? Will 08 LF bindings fit on a Ronix board? |
