Im getting my setup for next year and like the new liquidforce line, even thought it is same shapes and stuff its still got a couple of new boards and graphics. I really want a board that will spin and land soft, I demod the shane for a while and liked it alot but never could get over the graphics. And last year i rode the Watson. Both were great boards and had crazy pop and soft landings. I want to know of a really soft landing board with mad pop and spins with ease. I looked and read the descriptions a million times and they all sound the same to me and with the new axis and witness out i really am not sure what to get. any suggestions?

The witness looks to be a crazy spinner for two reasons. 1) The tip and tail are about a quarter inch thick, so it's super light at the ends, and 2) It was designed by Benny G., who likes to spin a lot.

How would the pop be compared to a shane or watson do you think?

Boards can spin easily? I thought it was more dependent on the skill of the rider? Huh... I guess I just learned something new!

I will never understand why people let graphics get in the way of riding a board they "really like." If it fits your style and you feel comfortable on it, go with it. Hell, if graphics are such a big deal take some sandpaper to it and throw a coat of spraypaint on it.

Maestro, normally they wouldnt its more on how the board fits me but it was something about the picture in the middle that got me on the board I m also not a huge fan of white. I can spin a board fine i just want a loose feeling.
