the boards are also supposed to be able to fit any bindings this year.

| yeah, and i like the bindings better than these new ones... the only thing is the fins broke off, all 4. it's a good thing they did, because i love riding it finless

| broke on w2w.. the landings are soft, but the fins seem to give on double ups and if you take the board into the flats, like a big 180. without fins the board still edges great, and it's really fun to play around with the completely smooth bottomside of the board

they probably fixed that for 08. Im pretty sure the 08 recoil will be my next board.
i need somethin with soft landings and big pop. since i got my ronix one (the hardest landing board ive ever ridden) ive messed up both knees whereas before, theyve never given me a problem.

wow, i'm glad i heard that about the ronix one, i kinda wanted to ride it but now i just don't care that much... it's not that the slingshot board is an almighty board, but it's the best board i've ridden and the fact that it's pretty simplistic is cool knowing there's not much to improve upon, and the bindings are the nicest i've worn, they're so comfy

The one isnt a bad board at all. its wonderful really..its just lands like a brick.
the ronix bindings are crazy comfy but fragile..broke my last set 12 different times. I'm on my 2nd set now.

RC, how could you stand the one coming from a murray? The one is so sluggish across the water i hated every minute of being on it.

LakeIolaLuke, i loved my murray..but the One was just an overall better board for my riding style. As far as how it rides, i love it all. Its just the landings that are bad whereas my murray had the ribs in the bottom for easy landings.
thats my only complaint about the One board.

Hey Slingshot riders, how is the ankle support in the current Slingshot Driver boots? I'm worried that the boots won't give as much support as my 07 Watsons. And there's no way I can demo. Thanks for any info.

I have demoed the 07 drivers and recoil 137 and i loved it. The binders have way too much lacing though, but you can just take what laces you ont want out and it still hold tight and snug. The board is awesome!. Power slides are made with a breeze and the board is sooo light. And of course the board flexes, you will like that as well.
