I recommend it.

Jack,

You can't really judge a board for soft landings before you buy. You need to know more about how you ride and the size of the board you're looking at. The subtle board features can help...

I can't remember the name of the lake in Virginia, but there's one that has some absurd average temperature.

Good edit flow for the music and it was great that you had a number of different camera angles. Didn't overkill the effects which was good, too. What program did you edit with?

I use the GoPro suction Cup to secure mine, then I usually tie it with a shoelace to my bindings. This angle worked out alright. You're right though, it's definitely hit and miss.

My opinion (for what it's worth) is that you can never go wrong with a bigger board. When I started boarding around 2004-05 I rode around 140ish sized boards and all was good... then I went to a 136...

Alex,

It does have a more thin rail along the edges and that can contribute to a few more edge catches compared to something with a surf-like rail. I used to ride the Viva and I solved the problem...

I actually looked at the 2011 Mana at one point... it's a big air/ wide cut rider's dream- which I love.

You can see Dean destroy it in this 2011 Mana review. It's certainly a great board.
