Anybody ride Byerly boards? If so how do they ride? I'm just curious...haven't heard much about them..I've watched some videos on his site but other than that I don't know much about them...I know Kyle Murphy rides for them and he rocks (I think he still rides for them anyways..)

i rode an older byerly, i want to say 04 or 05 and was an awesome board to learn on slow with good pop, but haven't had the chance to ride the new ones. heard nothing but good things about them though!

Sweet! I dunno what made me think of it...but I remember seeing an ad in the Board Buyers guide issue of WBM that shows Kyle Murphy jumping a waterfall..I thought it was probably one of the coolest things ever lol

The Monarch is the best board I have ever been on, the Assault is pretty fun as well. The Assault has deeper molded fins so it tracks a little tighter and I think the Monarch has the perfect amount of fin to feel loose and release off the wake but still track good when you don't land perfect. Both boards feel pretty fast on the water unlike older 3-stage boards. All in all I would say that Byerly boards are the best they have ever been. Def. demo one asap and you will be hooked.

Oh and where'd you pick up your Monarch? I'm lookin at the 08s...on somewhat of a budget haha. I have about 4 boards I'm comparing and lookin at.

I have seen the 08's for really cheap online. Can't remember the site but if your on a budget I would get the 08. One retailer had some blems for a few hundred so search the net and you will fing a deal.

bchaboya, yea I went to boardersmall.com and they had an 08 Monarch 54" for 270. Good deal? it doesn't have a weight range...but I'm sure it'd be fine for me. It's like a 137cm i believe

Thats what I rode all last season and it was perfect. I just rode the 56" for the first time and liked it alot as well. Thats such a good deal jump on it before their gone. All me buds that ride the 54" range from about 140-180lbs. so if ur in that range you can't go wrong. It is a 137 but since there is so much surface area it feels bigger. Happy wakin
