Which board? Byerly Monarch or CWB Transcend?

I have ridden neither of these boards. I have read the company write-ups and the Wakeworld boards reviews but still want some first-hand experiences. All i hear is that the Transcend for 08 is a killer board. Fewer people have ridden the Byerly Monarch but it appears to be something i would be interested in trying. I am a fair rider at best and either board is going to be WAY beyond my ability level but still i would like a fun board that will make my time on the water more enjoyable even if i am just doing very basic stuff. If anybody can describe the pros and cons of these two boards I would be grateful and it would go a long way in helping me determine which board i want to try next. There are zero board shops in my area so i am going about this blindly. Thanks and Merry Christmas to all of you riders out there.
