Hey
Ive been boarding for a while and got a hyperlite scape for x-mas last year. It isn't really holding up to well but i didnt expect it to. I really like wakeskating and want to get into it more and i was looking at the liquid force anthem 40. Could this be a good board for me to ride and progress on? Thanks for your input

ya that is a pretty good board...but do you really want foam? cuz i would recommend grip you can really get the feel for the board more...id go with a gator mcguckin 41 if i were you...its an awesome concave skate for a good price

I love the LF Anthem. My friend has one and it is a really fun board. I learned my first ollie on that board. Even though it is foam, it is a concave-shaped foam. I still wear shoes with it because I like the feel of shoes. Just beware that the board may not hold up so good and may delam quickly.

i'm ready for the pwnage

i have a LF armada

it has a foam deck and is made of compression molded.. whatever.. not wood.

it holds up very very well and has no dings or scratches

i have been using it for more than a year

i love it

if you are gonna get a compresion skate get a integrity it is ALOT better of a skate than a armada and will never mess up....it has the pop of a wood skate but the durability of a compresion

Does liquid force make the integrity? Sorry im really new to this but i think im gonna look into the integrity and the armada now i think thanks for all of the suggestions.

People on wakeskating.com are raving about its shape and durability. I would personally purchase one, but I'll wait till next years model.
