hi guys,
Not many guys riding LF in the area I have been kiting in lately. I am leaning towards Influence however have not seen one in action. I am still pretty open to any brand apart from cabrinah, here is what I am after.
- 132-136
- Riding with bindings
- Good pop without sticking to the water too much
- very small fins.
- Lighter the better
- solid construction.
Cheers and thanks in advance.
btw does anyone know a LF dealer in Brisbane/ Gold Coast/ Sunny coast?
hey james, 132-136 is a very small board to ride with boots (unless you're jockey sized). and i believe lighter is not necessarily better. a bit of weight in the board helps with stability and momentum in many tricks, especially off-axis.
What would you recommend stamp? I have always rode a 132 with boots out of habbit i guess. 140 just seems so big!
In the Loop can you please PM me your number do you stock the Xenon INFRA ?
cheers and thanks for the responses.
LF DLX?
It's solid build, has a good pop, small fins and channels so you can ride it without fins and it's made for boots.
Size depends on your weight, I'm around 85kg and ride a DLX142.
I swapped my Cab Custom for a DLX and the DLX seems much more precise a gets going much easier in lighter conditions and the pop seems to be better too.
If you ride mainly in boots and assuming your somewhere between 75-85, I'd go for about 140 size.
132 does seem a bit small for boots though.
hey james, i can't comment on the new boards. i rarely ride the twintip these days and am still happy on my 08 liquid force mission with synergies.
jev is on the money with sizing though.
Have a search on my review for the LFX
They are a wicked board and hell sexy!
You won't regret LF for sure. :)
