What is the best Flex board? Should you ride a bigger or smaller than normal board if getting a flex board?

theres no best, just personal preference really. Im biased but I think the Company Severance shape is the most fun and versatile flex board. I dont buy into the hype of getting a bigger board just because its flex. Basically I would suggest riding the same length you were comfortable with before. For me the CO super ltd is perfect at 138

I love flex and you SHOULD get a little larger board.

I've been on Slingshot Recoil, Hype Roma/Ronix fex guy, LF Press series and without a doubt my favorite is the Slingshot.... The others are okay but just seem ike there are little things wrong here and there, not the SS.... perfect. Also their customer service is crazy good.

FYI the Only Flex Board on the Market that is Warrantied for Rails and Jibs is the O'brien Local. You can trash it on Jibs and Rocks and still get the bad boy warrantied.

The Reflex is sick. Real flexy tip and tail to press stuff out with a mellow subtle 3 stage rocker. the biggest size is a 141. The Response is our continuous rocker board and it comes in a 142 or a 145 for the big sizes. The Recoil is our a 3 stage board and the biggest size it comes in is a 142. If you have any questions you can hit me up 509-427-4950x0023 or ask for Kyle, or you can email me k.chinn@slingshotsports.com

My Recoil is pretty fast on the water which would belp for winching..... the board is tough as nails too.

Company 142 Severance! That board has crazy pop. Or even maybe go with the Recruit if you want a little more stiffer feel.
