Pictures are great... sick board, but how does it ride? Was it worth the cash?

I love the way it rides... as I got the stock launch series it's easily the stiffest flex board on the market, but it definitely flexes, and the flex return is much quicker than the slingshots I've ridden. It's fast on edge, but loose and forgiving when you want it to be. It's very quick to release of the wake and when I'm back in riding shape I just know I'm going to hit that toe 7 I've been working on. I've only been out a few times this year as it's just getting nice here in the NW but I feel like I could ride longer than I ever could early season. Along with my Ronix one boots, It's the lightest setup I've ever felt, and the spine...The spine really does make landings incredibly soft and you don't have to land tail heavy like the other flex boards. As for cost, in my opinion, you get what you pay for. Cheaper boards are made with cheaper materials and are made in factories overseas, but thats another topic. The Ronix Dark core's run at 650... 499 for a Sine... both are made of higher end materials.

Wow, the thing is translucent! you can see the shadows of the boots through the bottom, the word "sine" and it looks like there is some kind of stringer running the length of the board down the middle that is about 4 inches wide.

I rode this yesterday Thanks Tommy D. Although it was the first time on it, I got used to it pretty quick. It's extremely poppy, and the landings are very soft. It makes it easier to ride away from those huge dub-ups. I'm thinking of making the switch to the SINE

Fall in love more after every set... the flex return is insane when you load it and release properly!

Im kinda lost, what exactly is a flex board, I thought it was for rails so you can nose press and all that but then I heard you ride them Wake and I have no idea what they are.

^ you know how you can load the line to do certain tricks.... you can load up flex boards so when you pop it kicks extra hard.... way more pop than I have gotten with old style boards.
