Ok just wanted to see what you guys thought about the differences between these two boards. I'm leaning toward the witness but I'm also looking at the lyman and maybe the reflex(maybe). Just doing some research so I'm happy with my decision.

Its hard to put into facts/words why I like the Lyman better, but when I demoed the witness, it felt like a great board...then I demoed the Lyman after and it just felt perfect. Better than the witness in everything it seemed. The Lyman is definitely faster. To me, it popped the same, the Lyman is probably a little looser. Witness might get softer landings although the Lymans are definitely not bad...witness felt wider too.

lyman = faster, looser.

the witness is really slow and the lyman is really fast. i always ride the lyman but i actually really like the witness.it has really good straight up pop and nice landings. but i can still take my tricks up and out like i do on the lyman. but i recommend the lyman for sure.

How does the witness compare to a PS3(which I ride now) in speed?

luke_j 12-18-2008 10:32 PM

similar. It never really buries the rail and takes a hard edge like the lyman, but isn't all that different on edge from the PS3. The witness is very easy to spin on, and pops like crazy, just dosn't have a very agressive edge

I've ridden both and both are great. I chose the Witness for myself. Great board.
