hell yes its an awesome board, many people out there like it. Ive got one with 2001 belmont bindings. Ive had the bindings for a couple years now and one of the overlays just ripped last weekend though?? I still wouldnt trade em. Im ordering overlays tomorrow.

The Premeir rocks! I just picked up a 2003 140 DNA and I am loving it. I have ridden all of the top-end hyperlite boards and the Premeir is my favorite for all conditions. It is a mellow board, but is very predictable in all water and wake conditions. You can't go wrong with the premeir. Check out Grizzly Sports online for excellent prices on the boards, if you don't care about little cosmetic blems, you can get a blem board for under $300. Good luck.

Anyone ride the 04 yet?? Looks like it will ride way tighter. The molded fins are much deeper (like the byerly) and longer.

The only complaint I had with the Premier is that it is pretty slow. If they changed it for 04 to include deeper rails, then it would be an excellent board in my book. I just couldn't bring myself to hang up the byerly for the premier.

the new premier is slower. I know two people that have ridden it, one loved one hated it

I ride the premier 135 and love it. Has excellent pop. My only complaint is that the landings are pretty hard.
