So i just picked up the new one modello board. Rode it today and it wasnt to bad, 2nd ride of the season and i stomped most of my tricks. But i felt like when i edged in to the wake, the board was resisting, like i couldnt get it all the way on edge. I felt the same think last yeat when i tried a 139 ibex that was way to big. Now i've only ridden it this one time but i dont know if i should be worried. Its a 138 and i way about 150lbs, 5'11. I tried a 137 murray before and aside from the fact that it has the super continuous rocker (not a fan), it didnt seem to resist going on edge that much. Last year i rode a 134 ibex and it felt fine but i'm eorried it might be to small this year since i've grown a little.
So is it normal to feel like i have to edge harder with this board? Or is because of the fact that its bigger, the rocker, the new wider ride, maybe my stance is to narrow (on middle stance option 12/-12)? It didnt seem to affect my ride to much but what with it being a new board, maybe i just need to get used to it (?). Let me know guys, thanks
