Harley Grind or Watson Hybrid?

I am currently looking for a new wakeboard, I’ve been looking at the Watson Hybrid or the Harley Grind but can’t decide on which to buy.

My last board was a Lyman and I loved it but it got damaged. I do all my riding behind a boat but we are putting a slider in the lake this season that’s why I was looking the grind base (is this a good idea or should I stick to the regular base)?

Has anyone got any information on how either of these boards ride?

Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Cheers!

Uh...they both have the grind base...so he's probably going to end up getting something with a grind base. I've only ever ridden the Watson, but I really enoyed it. It has a nice amount of flex for rails, but isnt a noodle on the wake. I ride boat for the most part, on an 08 Ibex, so I obviously prefer the big 3 stage rocker, and had a blast on the Watson.

Reviving an older thread so i dont start a new one. How do these boards do behind a boat? Reason for going grind base is bc there will b some use at the cable park but mainly boat. Not much about there about the harley grind but have read my fair share of reviews of the watson hybrid. I can demo the watson but not the harley grind.

Thanks
