Ty...this is a great board...probably my favorite shape out of all the DoubleUP boards. I had the 138 version of this board and also the 139 Pure Ride (same shape) and absolutely loved both of them. I think it pops great. I put 0.5 inch fins on it and it was loose when I wanted it to be. I don't think you will be disappointed.

I've never ridden a Double Up and not liked it. They're the only brand I can say that about.

Ty...sorry I have not ridden an Absolute. I have heard good things about it from friends, but couldn't tell you how it compares to the Nelson.

i am just a beginner but i rode the double up and than i liked it. i also tryed the absolute. i like them both but the absolute feels lighter.

i had fun with it, but I ended up breaking 3 of them!

what year was the board that kept breaking? Or was it more than one? I heard that the 2002 were fragile anyone had problems with the 2003's (pure ride series they're called now)?
