|

2004 Hyperlite Fluid w/ Spin boots..........$299.99
2004 Liquid Force Evo w/ Evo boots........$299.99
2004 CWB Sol w/ Mobe boots.................$279.99
I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't say, "Demo them."
I understand that I should demo them, but i would like to only demo one or two.....dont have a ton of money |

at most places the money you pay to demo counts toward the purchase.
If you only want to demo 2 anyway, I say the HL and the CWB, I'm not a LF fan. Out of those 2 I'd probably go with the HL, but I've never rode a CWB so I might change my mind if I had. _________________ Some female cows have horns, but you wouldn't really know anything about that now would you? |

go with the hyperlite and the CWB
i'm not sure if anyone besides hyperlite has a lifetime warranty (correct me if i am wrong) and the CWB is a cheaper price but it should ride well |

| dude, i usto sell all ofthose board/binding packages at west marine, if you are gonna go with a deal already set up get the CWB tattoo with the mobes. basically the same board but with half inch molded fins instead of one inch molded. its a better board i would go with that, and around the same price |

| None of them. They're all beginner boards that you'll grow out of super fast. If you only have $300 to buy your setup, you should look into previous years boards and bindings either at your local shop or on ebay. |

| yaa im not too sure you want to go with such a beginner board.....you will just have to get a new one when you progress or grow bigger. i say look at some older year boards like 02s or 03s or even 01s if your looking for a good board that you will never grow out of |

yea, most people learn really fast on wakeboards and want a more advanced one in a year or less. look into intermediate HL and some CWB boards. the CWB Tattoo might not be too bad, but im not sure how long you would like it... _________________ Wake Forest University |

if you dont want to spend to much $ but want a board to last you get some close out board (like 2003) and bindings. _________________ HYPERLITE WAKESKATES SUCK! skate I/\/tegrity |

I learned on a 2000 HL offshore 141 and just this year finally bought a 2003 LF Diva 134 with HL spin bindings. I totally love my board and would never give it up. I got mine at copelands like a month ago for $140 and spin bindings (from last year) for $60. Total was $200 which was fab! I popped right up and have had NO problems with it. The HL does have a lifetime warranty tho.  _________________ I'm learning slowly.... don't laugh when I can't land my jumps- at least I'm out on the water trying!

dude the evo is a great board. my friend learned on it and progreessed relativly quickly and he did not have to upgrade to a new board. alt5hough I think that that would also work out on the sol and fluid _________________ Keep Austin Weird |

........yea I was looking at beginner boards for myself and an experienced friend said the same thing most here say.......skip the beginner boards.
Check eBay out. Season is ending so probably could find some good deals on '04's or even some '03's that still might be out there in stores. _________________ Good Beer, Good Cheer! |
