For what your getting it looks good. Be ready to spend about 75.00 on the bidding tho, I think it will go up.

I'd hit up your local shop, they can help you out with what you need. Don't go too cheap on a board and bindings, that board is rather outdated...

also hyperlite isn't your only option...

Hey, remember, froma ebayer, if you bid earlier then you are just raising the price for yourself. Wait until later, but anyway good luck, looks good for the price.

ok one more question for you guys, has any one heard of the board, and what skill level is it,and I know the bindings are 02 but I cant find a site that has info about the board? I know hyperlite made a newer year but I cant find this board anywhere.

Board looks alright, those fins might have you eatin water though. If you want it as a slider then take them off. If not, get some smaller fins. Besides that, 50 bucks for a board is unbeatable.

As far as the bindings go, I have the '04 spin and they work great.

As far as the board, I ride Hyperlight and I love it, they have never disappointed me. However, the board looks more like a slider board than an all out air/ trick board. But like I said, 50 bucks, if you don't buy it I will.

yea im bidding on it right now, but do u know off hand what skill it is?

it looks like a really good beginner board that you can use to master a few tricks. Tricks like 180's, 360's, butter grind(don't use the 2" fins for this), possibly even a backroll. Beyond that it looks like a really good slider like I said before.

When you move on, you might wanna get something that will get a really nice edge. And if you wanna stay with Hyperlight, you might wanna consider a Byerly(those have a really nice edge and great pop off the wake), or the State board which is specialized to help you ride both regular and switch. As far as bindings go, you could probably keep the same ones.(hell I have them[just the newer kind, doesn't make a difference] on my Byerly.) So ya I hope this helps.

Very Happy

One thing I for got to add, since you are a noob, keeps the fins on at first, they will really help when you start turning. The big fins are really nice when you wanna turn.

I am personally a little skeptical about buying a board on Ebay, only because I would want to Demo a board first before I buy it, but other than that if you are a beginner it probably won't bother you so I say go ahead and buy it.

Thats a great starter board. After you get good with the 2" fins try some 1.5". I think its a good set-up. When you get you're next board that you're going to advance you're skills with thats when you need to start demoing.

I'll sell you a pair of 2004 Liquid Force Exo's in XL for $125. Have maybe 45 minutes of riding on them.

Don't risk your body in a shady pair of bindings.

Element,
Stick w/ ebay if you want to save $$. It will take you some time to wade through the auctions, but in my experience, it will pay off. I just got a brand new '04 Temet 139 for $148. I'm pleased w/ that.

Mariner · Guest

I've heard the search is a good starter board. Here's one w/ bindings for cheap. Anybody else have a comment on this board and bindings?
