2012 Slingshot Lyman

Has anybody ridden it or checked it out? I'm in LOVE with my 09 Recoil and honestly have no need for a new deck, but this thing makes my crotch tingle. And the fact that it is Keith's last board makes me want to ride it, he gave me some pointers and some motivational talks via myspace a few years ago and I've always been a big fan of his ever since so it makes me want it even more. Anyway, just wondering if it is his typical style board that shoots hard off the wake and then lands like you are on a temperpedic, if so then I guess I will add to cart.

so I am assuming nobody has ridden it?

I don't know of anyone who's ridden it and I've never seen it in person. There aren't a lot of these boards around yet as far as I can tell. But this forum is really dead anyway. Ask WakeWorld and you're much more likely to get a response.

We just got in our 2012 slingshot but have not put the boards online yet. There were not Lyman boards in the shipment. those are still being built. I am not sure if those are out yet.

I got my Lyman today from the better half, going to mount the d3s on it but want to get some 2012 rads.

Few pictures, only one I've seen with the reverse bottom.

Looks like a pretty dope shape for the boat

It still has some flex in it, too. Not nearly as much as the recoil, but I could feel that it had more flex than a normal board. Need a dry suit so I can go ride!

Haven't ridden one yet but got to handle it at the Slingshot booth at Expo. I can't wait to try it out. Should have one in hand by late Spring or early Summer. Cool

found out that the Lyman board is going to be in the graphic that the bottom of mine is, only the ballistic series will have the full wood bottom. Should be riding this within a week or two, can't wait to take it out.
