If you can demo it. That's the only way to really know if it's the board for you.


Trinity Board Shop will let you try it 30 days for free. See the link above.

It seems like I've seen some pretty detailed reviews on the site about the 04 Byerly. I recommend doing a search and seeing if anything useful comes up.

A friend of mine road it, he said it tracks really well, even without fins, decent pop, overall not a bad board. The shape wasnt a mistake or anything.

It rides very closely to the 02/03 shape. it gets a little lower in the cuts. and I notice a little annoying spray from the cut outs on the edges. I liked the ride, hated the look.

Ive ridden a different Byerly since 2000 but I may move on this year, I am sick of having to basically lean on my front foot to get a good toeside cut going. I WANT SPEED.

The ride is good. It holds to the water more than the previous versions, has good pop and lands softer than some other boards I've riden.
I'm selling mine though. I like my '03 model better and I don't need the extra board. Probably get a new wakeskate in it's place, since I seem to be doing that alot more than boarding now. Now if I could just find someone with a Mutiny, or a Butter, so I could demo both before I bought one.

Yea I have to say I liked the 2002 and 2003 better as far as how they look(I do dig the all black though). But I really don't care how it looks as long as it rides good. It is pretty radical loking though.
