Just curious! has anyone been on the Hyperlites 2006 Roam board? Can anyone compare it to last years, is the shape, construction, flex any different?

thanks

03Belmont, that really sucks considering Hyperlite calls the Roam a "jib-friendly...rail riding style board."

nfn, The 2nd generations were better than the 1st gen 05s... for the 2nd generation they added a plastic side rail to protect it from delaming.... But even the 2nd generations would crack or delam over time
