I've ridden an 04' Substance and a 16' Watson Classic. It's now rebranded as just the 'Classic.' Both were Watson pro models.... When the Watson came out, the Substance stayed in the lineup for a few years. Same with the Watson... it became the Watson Classic when he got a new model, and then just the classic. If you like the ride of your current board and don't want too much of a change, just a bigger board, I'd say getting a current Classic is a safe bet. It is an older shape, but still a goody in my opinion. It is what i Ride. They ride very similar. If you are looking to get way different in ride performance, then we'll need a little more on what you are looking for.
