Hey,
first of all, I'm old and suck!
I started riding a LF Omega in '05, and in '09 switched to an IBEX 144 and liked the landings much better, but was having trouble clearing toe side W-W consistently. Went riding the other day and tried a '09 Transcend Platty 142, and cleared TS on my second try, and by the end of my second set was hitting it consistently.
I've had a better rider try my Ibex, and he could rock it, but, he said he had to work his @$$ off to get it to go to the wake.
Any other boards I should be looking at? I want to keep the SOFT landings of the Ibex (Transcend was pretty good too), probably need a little faster board, but I would prefer to keep my tricks wake to wake to preserve the knees.
I really liked that Transcend (rode it finless/no extensions), open for suggestions!
