Have them both (more acurately access to them both since the parks is my friends) and there just different. I like the parks way more though.

I rode the Parks this last weekend. I thought it sucked. Unless you land every trick perfect like 'the man' himself. I think the board is deadly "with the stock fins." I rode a Premier for my first two seasons and thought it had just as good of a pop, without the super-edgy feel.

I have the Parks 138 DNA and I haven't had any issues with it at all. I enjoy it more than the Belmont 136. Jarrod is just bitter because he was trying it in crappy water and after he had gotten in the boat from a wakesurf run while drinking Tecate. Actually, I think that he's bitter he spilled some Tecate, but still...

Ahhh!!! What's up Jason?! Sorry you caught me talkin smack about your board man! I was surprised that more of these guys didn't ream me for knockin' the Parks board. Hope you can come out with us again. Hey lemme know if you can email the avi file of the wakesurfing/Tecate session! Thanks man.

Contrary to popular opinion, I didn't like the Parks either. I tied it for 2 weeks last year and thought it was too tight or grippy for me and although it tracked like no other and popped well it just didn't seem to release from the wake easily. Oviously, Parks can ride the crap out of it so it fits him, just not me, and I'm definetly no Parks. As a point of refrence I ride the Premier 140 (without fins) and also like the Byerly. The ultimate answer is try before you buy and buy what works for you not whos name is on the board, the board will never make you ride like the Pro it's designed for.

Premier 140 DNA is much better than the Parks. My friend just bought the 03 Parks and he says he loves it but he is also a tool so that might explain alot.

the 03 Parks is the shizzle, rode it finless the other day and its slick as andrews mommas cooter, its a bada$$ board but you gotta remember your on a board or youll eat it, gotta be in control, the premier 140 DNA is an all around good board, i prefer a much faster and slicker board, to me the premier is slow but gives you a great pop, the 143 parks is slick and is loose feeling in the water, but when you hit the wake you get hella pop and landings are soft,, if you want a board between the premier and the parks get the byerly i have it and it is also one sweet board, these are the best three boards hyperlite makes,,get one and go ride,,,,

oh yeah i tried the CWB absolute platinum this past weekend, its nice but i think ill stick with hyperlites,
