Hey I have been wakeboarding a long time but I outgrew my board a long time ago and could never afford a new one. I'm looking to get a new one for this summer. I am 6'2 185 lbs, I ride behing an I/O with no tower and Im looking for a new board that will give me more pop off the wake and allow me to do some surface tricks that I couldnt do off my old board such as surface 180's and butterslides and stuff. Ive boarded for a long time but I really dont know a lot of tricks.

Im looking for an advanced board that will suit me for awhile. I went to a few places today and they suggested these boards for me: The Liquid Force Shane 140 (newer version of the subject), CWB Absolute 141 Platinum, and Hyperlite Premier 141. I thought I would post these and maybe get some responses about what everyone thinks of these boards and if they have rode them before. One of the guys in the store also said Liquid Force boards dont last and he's had problems with the laminent coming off on them so if anyone can confirm or deny that that would also help. Thanks for any help I can get.

First off, you will need to either get a Parks sticker or at least write Parks on all of these boards for them to make you better.
Second, what is your favorite color?
Third, buy the one that looks the coolest.

Sorry for the sarcasm...I'm a dick. The places you went today should let you try them. If they don't, they suck as shops. Try them, the one that makes you enjoy your sesh the most is your next deck.
