Just curious, I don't have access to any, but I have seen the Retro Fish boards pop up in a few posts here and there. Any others that work well behind the boat? All the boards I have are skim-style (Phase 5) or otherwise (Hyperlite Landlock and TrickBoardz). One of these days, I will pick up a true surf style wakesurfer though.

Stephen you should check out Shredstixx.com they have really good surf style boards and if your lookin to do airs check out the thresher shredder.

I was looking at those earlier, they are out of my boarding budget for this year at least.

Here is a video I shot of Gavin Sutherland testing the morey soft top they should work fine behind a boat <a href="http://www.surfline.com/video/video_player/video_player.cfm?id=2652&amp;mv=loc" target="_blank">http://www.surfline.com/video/video_player/video_player.cfm?id=2652&amp;mv=loc</a>
