I am thinking of picking up a new board, just wanted to get some advice from you guys.
I have a 2011 CWB Transcend new in the plastic from factory that replaced my 08 Transcend under a warranty issue. I have herd that the 2011 Transcend is a 1000x's better then the one I had, but I havent tried it out yet.
I've been looking at different boards thinking that I might want to try something new for next season since local board shops and cutting deals on 2010 stuff to get rid of it.
My style of riding is pretty simple. I enjoy doing surface ticks, slides, jumping wake to wake, little board grabs, but nothing major. Just out there to have a great time. So I guess you can say I am a knee bent mellow rider who doesn't want to work to hard. I am 260 and 6'0.
I demoed a Hyperlite Tribute and enjoyed it very much, but It felt a tad slow for me as I am used to the Transcend. But board slides were super cake on this board.
I forgot to mentioned, I am also looking at the LF Trip 138 for my girlfriend she rides a 144 motive, but i want to get her something smaller. She just likes cruising around, nothing fancy.
I am currently looking at the 2010 LF Watson, how different is it to my 08 Transcend and the Tribute?
Any information would be awesome. Thank You!
