Hey guys/girls Im trying to decide between three boards and cant really decide which one to get. Any opinions or info on these boards would be great. The Ronix one. CWB absolute. Hyperlite Murray. All 2008 models.
Thanks

Of those three --- Murray

Haven't tried the absolute but the murray is hard to beat

of the three mentioned, Murray too (i have not ridden any of those three, just f.y.i.

why those three? looking for a particular rocker line to fit your style, speed, landings being soft? what are you looking for... because asking "any more options?" just opens things up real wide for a 'zealion "favorite board" posts

Try a slingshot board or at least some other flex board if you can. super fun to ride and super soft on landings

the Lyman, mentioned by benji is probably my favorite non-flex board that i HAVE ridden

I don't charge the wake really really hard, more of a progressive edge so not as much speed as pop. I like the board to be a little loose going straight, but not really loose. On an edge I like to be fairly locked down. Soft landings are always a nice plus. Im not really a fan of the flex board idea right now.

I have heard the murray described like the lyman ....except the lyman has more flex to it...but not like the slingshot.

For what you just said you want in a board James go with the Absolute.

James of those three I have to say I've only ridden the one, but it's a tough board to beat, other than the three or four people on here that broke early '07 models there are hardly any negative reviews. my favorite board so far, by far. everyone thats been on my old one love it.

"I don't charge the wake really really hard, more of a progressive edge so not as much speed as pop" Ronix One has a crazy abrupt 3 stage rocker, murray is a continuous hybrid. the absolute is a subtle three stage, so off the three the one will give you the most straight up pop.
