2010 Hyperlite Murray - I'm in love!
I finally got the chance to try out the new 2010 Hyperlite Murray! What a rippin' board! Shaun Murray and Greg Nelson outdid themselves this year with the new shape. The Subtle 3-stage rocker definitely allowed me to pop effortlessly off the wake and the landings (even though I was in rough water) were extremely smooth. I'm a slow drifting edger and wait to turn it on until the last second...this board allowed me to do that smoothly and with minimal effort.
I liked it so much I went home and ordered one right away! I can't wait for it to get here! Has anyone else tried the Murray this year? Happy Shredding! L |
I demoed the 142 over the weekend. I felt the same way and I hated the 2009 shape. I ride a Lyman now and felt the Murray had a little more straight up pop and was a touch smoother up the wake with a quicker release ( i ride the lyman with all 8 fins). Anyway, I got home and ordered one too :) Can't wait to get back on Hyperlite.

Okay this may be dumb question but remember I am a noob so cut me some slack, but are you talking about the Murray Nova or the Murray Bio?
|
Jeff there both the same shape and both great boards just the nove has a lighter foam core and is a little stiffer because of the strata track system. I know a few people who ride them and they all really like it they say its the best murry shape ever hope that helps
|
I rode the Nova core but I hear they ride pretty much the same. The Nova is just a few lbs lighter.
|
That's good to hear Linz! I really want to go try it out because I am in serious need of a new board. I am still riding my old Belmont from '01. It still works and everything, but it definitely has lost a lot of pop. i also want to try out a Lyman, Watson, and a Company and Slingshot because I'm also a big snowboarder so the whole flex aspect is intriguing to me.

L,
Glad to hear you dig the shape, I know Mr. Murray is pumped on it and I am as well, have a great summer and enjoy the new ride! -GN |
My son rode one last weekend and was completely sold out on it. Loved the pop and the edge. He's on a tribute right now. If he ends up with one I might get to try one too. Nice job Greg.
