I rode a friends board this weekend..Jobe 2020 141 and got up first time, real easy to ride. This weekend was my first time every boarding. What is a good board that isn't superhard to ride but will get me into some of the tricks...don't want to have to get a new board soon.

This is my 2 cents but buy a Hyperlite State or Motive. But you kno everybody has there own opions. But thats is what i started with and quickly advanced. Peace

My little bro has no co-ordination what so ever and he learned really fast on a liquid force evo. But I can switch out the fins and still have alot of fun with it. But like others have said everyone is different.

CWB Sol. Based off an old Absolute shape, softer and with adjustable boots. Much better shape than the Motive.

I'd recommend the Liquid Force Omega with Alphas as a combo package. The Omega is a very versatile board that you won't grow out of ability-wise, and the Alphas are super comfortable with excellent performance (a lot of bang for the buck). <BR> <BR>Mike Dick <BR>See Dick Ride Wakeboards <BR><a href="http://www.seedickride.com" target="_blank">www.seedickride.com</a> <BR>(701)682-5515 <BR><a href="mailto:mike@seedickride.com">mike@seedickrid e.com</a>
