Posted: Jul 13, 2010 12:29 pm Post subject: SlingshotRecoil 2009 |
|
|
I'm 140 pounds and about 5'9
Anyways, i've been looking at a slingshot recoil 2009 since i've heard about the soft landings. My problem now is that i hate landings, i absolutely love booting myself up in the air and trying to get as far out in the flats yet i hold myself back because my board now kills my knees on landings.
also 134 would be a good size for someone my height/weight, correct? |

| Nooooo, I say go for the 138 recoil, I have it and I weigh 135. It's awsome. Softest landings ever. My knee can be hurt and I still won't feel it much. Definatly 138 |

Ive heard great things about the CWB Marius for soft landings! Thats what i suggest. Can even get some 06-8s for $150 if you look hard enough! I personally have no experience with it bust have heard great things about the landings! _________________ Its hard to explain to the average person, why we risk breaking every bone in our body, but you know what, thats what makes our sport so bad ass.-Brian Deegan |
