I've now ride the 142 One, it's a sick board. Compared to my '07 135 Absolute Platy, it edges way harder. It also has really soft landing and is super forgiving cause the rails are rounded through the mid-section, so it minimizes the diggers. The board also has mad flex, and if you use the one bindings, the combo feels really more like a snowboard than a wakeboard (you can flex and twist the board and bindings as one unit, which really makes you feel like you fully connected to the board). I think if you are having dificulties edging the One, it's probably your technique more than the board. It's easy to get lazy and rely on the fins to track vs. the rail of the board. Just my .02 cents.
