Want opinions on the LF Armada

What's your opinions on the Armada? Edge hold, riding w/o the center fin,etc. I am thinking about getting one.

Or maybe an Integrity. Does the Integrity have molded fins? I'm kicking around the idea, and probably won't buy until spring.

Support rider owned. Integrity, sattelyte, ect are all great brands! I have a Sattelyte and I love it. Most everyone on here will say integrity and I agree but they were out of my price range at the time, and i wasn't sure if i would like wakeskating.

How deep are the "molded fins" on the armada?They don't look more than .250 deep in the pic on the LF site. Wonder if they would help much?

CHiLi DaWg, you rely on the rails more than the molded in fins

Mr. Top Hat, Is absoultely right. The Integrity has customizable rails also, so you can fine tune them to be as responsive as you want.

Nick, I was going to ask you what you mean by the Integrity has cusomizable rails...
however, I did the research on Integrity's website.. very interesting..
So here is a plug for Integrity, with an explanation:

CHiLi DaWg, the integritys have channels which pretty much do the same as the molded in fins. they just give a little extra tracking for riding finless. and yeah the edges do make the difference and im pretty sure those edges on the armada will do the job without cutting your legs off like the hyperlites. check out the new gator stuff too, their 2006 compression (which it seems like your looking for)skates look pretty sick.
