Wakeboard for SLIDERS

Surfer · Newbie Joined: 21 Dec 2009 Posts: 1

Hello, i have just started riding cable and hitting sliders. The only problem is my Lyman 139 is getting all banged up so i want to keep it for Boat ONLY.
I have an old LF omega 139 which i started to use and enjoyed it more and the moulded fins are smaller and stronger.

I have decided that i am going to buy a new board just for riding cable mostly i will be hitting sliders and if i managed the odd raley.

So my question is what is a good board for hitting sliders???

I was looking into Rope Wakeboards but cant find anywhere that sell them.

Also any advise on what type of board suits CABLE and SLIDERS.

Regards

Flex boards - All Slingshot, Ronix Covenant, Hyperlite Roam

^^If you just so happen to buy a slingshot, do NOT buy their boots. The boards are really light and the boots are heavy and feel awkward and are really stiff and uncomfortable too. I rode my friends Recoil with Ronix bindings and it was actually really nice and light all around.

Ronix is coming out with a "sintered" base for this coming year that is supposed to hold up really well on sliders. I'm getting that bottom on my Ibex that I'm STILL waiting on and I'll be going to OWC since they hooked me up with an almost-anything-goes warranty on my new one (long story). Should be good, I've heard many good things about it.

Ive heard great things about the new LF FLX. I also recommend the Company Severance and HL Roam

Check out CWB's new deck the Vibe. That thing is sick. It has a slider base and ABS sidewalls to hold up on rails. It also has the shallow long base fins that will you plenty of grip for air tricks.
