2012 Boards
hey guys what new boards have you spotted around the traps?
|
There's the new Austin Hair pro model and the 2012 Franchise that have already been posted on here, as well as Lyman's final Slingshot pro model, but I haven't personally spotted any.
|
Ive seen the CWB, LF, JOBE and CTRL boards for 2012 at the dealer showings over here in Aus :P hehe
|
Seen some 2012 slingshot.... like what I see
|
2012 LF Harley? http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fb...type=1&theater

the new harley board looks cool, not so much like a kid board now lol

Just kidding. I actually don't like those 2012 graphics as much as my 2011, which looks sick, but I'll wait until I get a good picture of it. |
On a related note when do the next years boards typically release? I'm holding out for a killer deal on a 2010 slingshot Recoil w/ RAD bindings
|
Looking back at the 2011 thread it was around the last week of July that marketing material started coming out. I think the Ronix brochure download link popped up on August 2nd. Not sure about the Slingshot stuff.
|
When will 2011 stuff start going on sale? I want the 2011 lf vantage closed toes but def dont wanna pay $350-$400 for em.

Marek and systems
http://www.facebook.com/HyperliteNor...type=1&theater |
2012 systems will have a new toe cap and lockable highback.
|
Tahts good news, the toe strap on the current one and the high back not being locked up is a serious pain
|
I feel that the toe cap is a step back as being right on top of your feet makes a major pressure point. I thought they were going to the burton over the toe cap.
|
The big problem I have with them is something the toe cap can fix. The harder falls I take cause the high back to slip back and the toe strap to go under my boot. It's a big pain get it back in the water. Also the ladders on these things break loose too easy, I came completely out of the binding last night on a wreck
|
I have came out of them numerous times. I'm glad they actually release though, otherwise some of the falls would have hurt a lot more.

Don't see toe caps though. I'm thinking I'm going to switch to burton EST bidings from system. Much better all around
|
Chris, if you end up trying the burton est binders let me know how you like it, been wanting to try those on one of the new slingshot boards
|
So wait, people are putting snowboard bindings on wakeboards now? Cool!
|
Its happened a few times before, Alliance had a video of someone riding a Response in the snow, and there have been a couple threads on it, one of them fairly recently.

that looks so dope, so impressed with cwb 2011... cant wait to see the whole 2012 yeah!!!! |
Sean O'Brien on his 2012 Paradigm....http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fb...type=1&theater
|
If I could demo one board right now it would be the Paradigm!
|
I heard the witness grind was getting re-designed for 2012.. any LF insiders??
|
The witness will remain unchanged...only difference is it is not benny g's pro model anymore. He is not considered one of their global team riders anymore...which I think is stupid. Pros like him and lyman that have been around and are Pretty much freeriding legends shouldnt be disrespected like that. I know times are tough and keeping the top contest riders is a high priority but taking a name off a board that he helped shape and design and promote is silly to me. Wouldnt be surprised to see him on a humanoid board soon.
|
Damn :( Ben G rules. Hopefully things will work out for him.

|
Greenwood isn't a Global rider anymore? Wow... that really is disrespectful.

Phallanx whole line of boards
Humanoid 1up board saw this on SINE wake's facebook page a month or two back doesn't look like the current SINE boards |
......So you sell a bunch of boards through being a top rider/ coach (and a great guy) have the best Pete/ Ole 7/ Method in the industry- and you get your name taken off the board you helped design. That at best is insulting
|
I talked to waston while he was on our boat at PWT in acworth about his 2012 boards and he said his 2012 hybrid is the best/ sickest he has ever put out.
|
I've ridden a ton of boards and nothing is as forgiving and pops as much as the Harley... Spins better than anything in the world and absolute insane pop!
|
Here's a peak at Watson's board http://twitpic.com/5vgk2m

Anyone seen any of the new Ronix boards?
|
Been keeping an eye out for them... and haven't seen any of them .......... YET that is...... haha
|
This is from the 2011 gear thread. http://www.squareoneco.com/dealer/in...gid=2&Itemid=2
Can someone find a link like this for 2012? |
Dang.. I was Reaalllyy hoping that the witness would go towards a hybrid.. But will all the same hook up as the current.. O welll.. CTRL Here I Come!!
|
as soon as the slingshot lyman hits I am scooping it up.
|
Anyone seen the new b-side
|
Here is a pic of JD and his boots, but really can't see the board:
http://www.facebook.com/kingofwake?s...type=1&theater Should be a lot of pictures after this weekend with Nationals. |
So did anyone get a good pic of the new bside or the ronix lineup?
|
|
ronix one colors next year are lime green and black lol
|
|
why do pros put their boards on on top of the engine compartment instead of on the platform (like in the JD photo above)?i always see them doing this and i cant figure out why, besides becasue its cool..i guess?

Foosh's stuff looks ill |
Good find! I like harleys boots a ton more than this year's. At least they dont look like the shoes i wore in 2nd grade with pink and blue all over them. Love the new stuff, especially the vantages and shanes.

Here's a shot of Harley's bindings. I like how the teeth are hidden under the plate. Keeps it clean looking.
http://www.wake2wake.ca/sites/defaul...s/img-0635.jpg There is also a few more shots of the B-Side and a Harley's deck on wake2wake.ca |
Not really feeling the Ronix stuff. I guess i dont like lime green. The orange ones gotta be the Franks right? the stiching pattern matches this year's
|
the white ones look alright I guess basically the same thing as my white 11 ones lol If it aint broke dont fix it i suppose
|
although I must admit, the bright orange ones caught my eye.. even though id never spend 400+ bucks on them
|
New Trip looks pretty cool
|
|
|
Some of you seem to be commenting on the 2012 Ronix boards. Did I miss a post?

|
The only decent looking board I've seen so far is the harley, they keep making boards uglier and uglier.

|
I hope the Ronix pictures went away because they weren't real... wasn't feelin' the look of any of those boards.
|
There's a couple more Ronix products on Perfski.com
|
Nah pretty sure they were real. The Franks go with the Bill's colour scheme, as do the green and white ones. Its pretty standard for the hello my name is series to look crazy, and it sells pretty well. I wouldn't be surprised to see a bunch of people rocking orange boots next season, seeing as so many went for the green this year. Can't wait to see the red One to go with the black boots, or what they'll do with the Phoenix. I'm hoping for something loud cos this year was kinda bland.
I'm loving the colours for 2012!. |
|
and it lookes like the ronix one is comletly redisigned in shape as you can see on http://www.perfski.com/Wakeboards/20...e-Modello.html
|
where is the other ronix stuff?
The squareone link doen't work anymore, The new boards are safed in the folger 'Instructional' by changing the last number in the link you can go in the 'Categories'. For example 47 for ronix, with 471 you can go to product 1 in this categorie, but I without been logged in you well get back to the main page... :/ |
Saw next years ronix lineup as a whole. Just like this year I like the regualr viva more then the ATR. Still want to see the 2012 hyperlite B-side, another really fun board
|
Anybody know if the Watson Hybrid is changing at all for 2012?

How about some info on the new Ronix One shape. Looks very old school Double Up ish.
|
Quote:
I tried to take a pic of it at Nationals and the Ronix Rep Tweaked on me! I just laughed and said I was going to post it on Wakeworld! |
Does Ronix not have a Parks/Relik boot for 2012?
|
I don't know if they have the relik, but on the transworld wake site they have a pic of the new Parks boot for 2012
|
|
Yes there is a Parks board this year. Pretty sure it's redesigned like the One.
|
I'm not seeing any of those bindings that could attach and detach like snowboard bindings, are they still going to be making those for 2012?

Systems are great. I was a huge skeptic before I rode them. There's a new toe strap for 2012 and locking high backs. I personally want to try a capstrap, but not sure if it will fit. Anyone have the ability to test that for me?
|
CWB is having a "2012 product release party" for their Facebook fans on Monday!
