Lariche pro model?
Does Jimmy have a pro model coming out? Take a look at this video and see if the board he is riding looks like anything else that is currently in the Hyperlite line.

Yea thats for sure not a current hyperlite setup, board or boots.
|
I saw that the other day and wondered myself.
|
on his facebook it said he got his new franchise board.....maybe he is getting his own model since there is now space for it? but im digging "Franchise" as the board name....
|
From what i know/have been told, Jimmy is working on a new pro model board, i believe that it will NOT be in the D.I.N.E. line. He sounded pretty stoked on the whole deal. I am not sure about boots though, he might be riding the TEAM boot.

Yup - new board for Jimmy is coming. Excerpt from an interview w/ Greg Nelson over on fuel.tv
http://www.fuel.tv/erikjernberg/2010...son-interview/ FTV: What goes into shaping a board for Hyperlite? GN: Blood, Sweat & Tears. No, at this point with my shaping for Hyperlite experience and new input are the key ingredients. Working with Murray has been special, I’ve known Shaun for a long time and it’s a privilege to help him get the best board under his feet, which I know we have this year. I worked with Mike Schwenne developing the Tribute and he and I have always been on the same page when it comes to design philosophy. I’ve just finished up a project with Mr. LaRiche too and we’re excited for that deck to hit the market in 2011. I can't wait to see it- |
It kinda looks like a flex board, I dont know about the wake take off or landings, but from the base and the way the tail and nose are cut makes it look like other flex boards. This would be pretty new for Hyperlite I guess, other than the Roam, but thats not made for the boat.
|
def not a flex. took a look at one the other day. looks like fun
|
Romes, do you work for hyperlite or ride with Jimmy? How did you see it?
|
A friend saw it and said it looks pretty sweet. He described it as a blend between the Marek and the B-side. Props to Jimmy, that kid kills it and is a ton of fun to watch.

God does Danny look Dialed!

All the boys look like they're riding good, that is a new Pro Model for Jim and I love the name as well. I think that was one of the first couple sets, but that's Jim, he rides anything pretty darn well. It was kind of tough as we rode different boards while testing features and stuff because I'd watch him do everything, ride killer and then he's like, "No not into that one"
A fun project and I can't wait to ride the 142! -GN |
Andy, I was going to comment on the same thing. Dialed and styled!

That board looks SUPER LIGHT just based on how fast Jimmy is able to spin it and it also looks like he is riding a shorter board in this, 136? Molded fins or removable? Couldn't really tell by the video. Maybe we will see Jimmy start doing some regular (left foot forward) spins out of him hahaha jk jk Yes, i realize he did a huge regular bs 5 into the flats but you never see Jimmy doing 7s or 9s regular |
