Not a bad deal at $169.

How many people are riding this board?

Feedback?

If you ever rode a double up and liked it you will like the tribute.

sure they are designed by the same person but there is a lot more tech in the tribute than the older double up boards. Alot has changed since then. I think that it rides unlike any other hyperlite board. It sits high in the water and has very small molded fins along with a variable edge rail that is similar to that of the one from Ronix. All those things keep the board loose when not on edge. It does edge pretty well though and has fair pop and pretty soft landings.

i'd say it's like a 3ds, pure ride, one, parks, and maybe a little bit of a premier all mixed toghether it's my favorite shape i have ever ridden it's sick cuz it rides fast and high in the water but it still pops really nice the fins are sick to becuz it hooks up real nice when u edge but breaks loose real easy when u want it to overall it's an awesome board IMO!

Best Hyperlite I've ever ridden.

I'm with Kellen, It IS the best hyperlite I've ever ridden. It is very tight on edge but as loose as you want when flat. GREAT BOARD.
