Just ask any of the shops dude, recoil comp, cabrinha caliber, underground flx will all be nice for freeriding around se qld so just show up at a shoP, have a chat and we will throw you a board for the day :)

Cheers. kusu, pm'd you my number in case you are down this way. Rhys.. they are pretty much the exact boards i wanted to demo but two closest shop i been to didn't have them. which shops around here can i demo these from? thanks.

thanks surf connect. I'll give yous a call tomorrow.

Kurt, any reason you think i'd like the tempo better than the free ride?

Rhys. that could be cool as i'm looking to buy within the next 4 weeks. My last board was actually a pretty full on wakestlye board (07 LF 140 Element). It was an awesome board but i want to change for a while to something a little more free ride. loved the element but sometimes i've been able to ride all day long for a couple of days in a row (like 7 out of last 9 days!!!) and by the end of the day I'm desperate for something that's lighter in the air with a low swing weight and powers up wind when wind is minimal. Element is no good at these times especially trying to cruise up wind when under powered, it gets there but takes a lot of effort. pm'd you my number for when you're down this way. thanks for the help.

the LF comp is a really nice board to ride, gets up and riding quick, fast across the water, smooth, nice pop etc.. its more directed at freestyle before we continue not wakestyle, thats the concept.

i rode hte 134 comp in moderate to heavy chop for quite a while and had no problems with it, youl really enjoy it.. only problem though is that alot of them tend to crease near the fins in the 08 models.. unsure of 09

the concept although wake orientated is really nice in straps and boots, i found it a joy to ride, SUPER smooth through chop and that spine on the tails really helped it bite in for a nice solid feel in the water. I would not look past that if you looking at LF boards.

the 666 i also rate highly, i rode one at kitestock when i was really lit up, i found it very smooth and forgiving with a SOLID edge and decent pop.

if i were you id go up to brissie fo a day and just cruise through and try as much as possible.
