RE: one problem with the board choise

Best thing to do would be demo any board before you buy it. What may be a great board for someone might not be functional at all for someone else....Is there a specific model you are looking at? Best thing would be to post which model/s you are looking at and see what other people have experienced with that model.

yes i agree with you, i know liquid force, jobe hiperlite but O´brien dont know it, it is of similar quality?better or worse?for example free motion are very similar to liquid force and are a little bit more cheaps,what it happens is that I have seen a model very cheap and if I must trust of that mark,

Hi

I can't help you with the boards because I'm a slalom diehard.
Do you own a Nautique?
Where are you?
I'm in Madrid.

Ya somos dos españoles en este foro, algo es algo.

He estado a Sevilla. Sevilla es mi segunda favorita ciudad en espana (he sido seis corrida de toros alli). Mi primero es Toledo. Mi espanol no es muy bueno pero, el dice que se gusta a esquiar en una sola esqui. El te pide si tienes un Nautique.

your spanish is very good, is better than my english, i suppose that a nautique is a boat to wakeboard isnt it?no, i havent got it. MG if you return someday to Sevilla write me i will take you to the best site to make wakeboard we have kickers slider a good boat, now we have making a new box is like orlando but in small jejeje, do you make wakeboard?

Si un nautique es un barco hecho por Correct Craft. Adoraria venir a Sevilla otra vez. Tengo a un amigo que vive alli periodicamente. Si me gusta a wakeboard pero empiezo todavia. Hago una caja nueva tambien.

You have there a Nautique, a SAN 210 ("Nautique" es como se llama genéricamente a los barcos Correct Craft)

Very good spanish MG.

I have had 3 Obrien boards and currently ride a Demented 141, selling a Clutch 142 on e-bay. The Demented is a great board, continuous rocker with progressive rocker on the ends so it acts a little like a 3 stage, the wider ends are great for getting big ollie air. The Clutch 142 is a 3 stage rocker board, I tend to prefer continuous rocker boards. They are good boards but their bindings are not good. They tend to be a little more fragile than Hyperlite or other boards but I prefer the ride so I am just a little more careful in my handling of them.

I broke my old Obrien Harris board but it was used by a pro when I bought it, Obrien sent me a new Clutch in trade, so they stood behind their product.

I'm currently on an Obrien Science 138 board with Link bindings and I enjoy it. Just a really smooth board and forgiving. Continuous rocker, 6 fin design. I dont have many newer boards to compare to, but I at least know I feel comfortable on the board so far so that's a good start.
