I was just wondering which board is better for a begginner, Lf ps3 or an '05 Murray? Thanks

Dman 2091, Beginner? Neither. IF you are just starting out I would look more into something like the LF evo or if it's for a lil guy/girl the Nemesis....The two board you selected are far too advanced to begin on, although it is possible. It will just be harder to control the board and the basics you learn will be sloppy.

What Ctipping said. I rode the Evo as a beginner and it's a solid board, I still have it. I'm not sure if the LF '06 line has the Evo, but I'm sure their is one that has a very similar setup. Check em out, but I'd definately pass on the PS3 or Murray.

do you guys know what size I would need, I am 5'6" 135lbs. Also what bindings would be good to go on this board; thanks

Dman 2091, probably look for a 137 or smaller, and the LF Alpha bindings are great, but if you want something cheaper might I suggest the Element.

For a beginner/intermediate board, you might want to check out the LF Synergy. I'm pretty sure its like an Evo replacement for 06'.

would 05 lf transits work with the evo?

Dman 2091, You betcha, and every binding I've seen will work with other brands boards. Although you may have some inlay issues. But LF will def pair up with LF.

Dman 2091, And, the transits are one of the most confrotable binding I have ever worn. LF gear is awesome.

all right so would a pair of transits and a evo 134 be good for a beginner who is 5'6" 134? also what size would i need for the transits? I am a size 10 shoe.

Get size larg transits. You have the same size feet as me and thats what I ride. The setup you have chosen is perfect, but remember to keep the centre fins in for a while and not just take them out because it's "cool".
