i have the backdraft i love the board but i didlike the bindings they are velco and the bottom pading is crappy so when you land it hurts

I thought Blindside made the Blade. Maybe Hydroslide has one too. I know that many people like the Blindside Blade and say it has great pop. I believe there was a review of it here recently.

Hydroslides in general are lower quality boards that most will outgrow with any real practice

Schmo, the blindside blade and the hydroslide blade are COMPLETELY different

hydroslide boards will last you untill for are getting air and stuff then you might want to get a better board

wakedad1, actually HO = Herb O'Brien...they own Hyperlite, and Jobe

colefooter, right....

HO sports doesn't own Jobe though...they just press the boards and make the bindings for them.
