Is there a big difference? Looking to buy my first "real" wakeboard, I have a wakeboard which is an off brand freebie that my boat dealer gave me and it has done okay. I don't get much pop with the current board, but it has almost no rocker at all.

Both are older Absolute shapes and are both great Boards!!I dont think you could go wrong either way. I think the Pure is a little faster board, but both are great. Good choices.

I own three variations of that same shape and I've ridden them for going on 4 years.

Some will argue, but I say there is NO noticeable difference between the ride of the Flame and the Pure. The Pure has a tiny set of molded fins on the perimeter of the rail. The Spine is said to be larger on the Flame but I have compared them side-by-side and disagree.

Choose one of those boards based on Graphics and go with it. IMO, that is the best board shape of all time. One of the few boards with big rocker and good speed.

The all black Pure looks sick with the Fuse bindings.

Yeah, I dig my Pure. Fast and tons of pop at the best prices around. They got a winner with that shape 3 years ago. Probably why it's still around in 2 different variations.
