I rode it this past weekend...I thought it looked amazing, insane amounts of rocker, but the board is not for me. Not to say it isn't right for you. IMO, the board was very slow and lacked the pop I was used to. Sorry to be so critical, but that was my personal impression.

I'm at the boarding school right now and have been riding it all week, I love it, I have to agree it does have a little bit of drag when your just standing flat on it, but once that puppy is on edge it feels really good, it hooks up when you want it to and it breaks loose when you want it to. I've done my first powerslides on it, its a really fun board for sure.

I just got home and I can tell you the boarding school is nothing short of AMAZING!! I had the time of my life, I learned so much stuff and it was great just to be able to ride behind a mastercraft, and on good conditions. It was windy almost everyday but we always found butter, they're on a chain of 6 lakes and there is always good water somewhere. All I have to say is PACE yourself! You're going to want to ride a bunch on monday but take it easy cause you'll be really hurting by wensday. ts hard to though cause you're so excited and fired up on the first day. Defenitly two very blistered thumbs way way up!

I learned a bunch of new stuff, I'm prety novice so its nothing fancy but I was stoked; powerslides, switch powerslides, re-entries, ollie 180's, surface 360's, bs surface 180's, dock starts, and a I learned a bunch about form and just correcting my stance and just the less is more sort of thing. I learned so much, I'm surre I'm prolly forgetting some things. Also I got to meet Tim, from here on wakeworld, Tim it was awesome to meet you, sorry we didn't get to chat much, it was awesome to meet you though!

Let me start off by saying that Bess was one of the most, if not THE MOST positive person we have ever had at the camp! Started off the week by saying how pumped she was and couldn't wait to get on the water and finished off by stating the exact same thing, only she didn't get off the water. In fact, if she didn't have a plane to catch, she would still be riding. She took it as far as to set a record for the most sets in one day...8! Always with a smile on her face, she would ask if anyone wanted to go and if anyone hesitated, she would hop out for a pull. Great having you Bess, a true testiment to the human spirit! Keep it up and hope to see you again. Shaun

I've been riding the Premeir, rented the new Murray for a friend who wanted to try it, we're both buying the new Murray. The board is nimble, smooth and pops of the wake fantastic, the best thing about the board is the landings in the flats or when you come up short, the least impact board I've ever ridden.
