Liquid Force sent me wrong board - Should I just keep it?

[GooDog6]

I ordered 2013 Luiquid Force S4 and they mailed me 2013 Liquid Force Hybrid Deluxe Henshaw.


It appears they both retail around $300 and I got last years model for $100. But I never ride cable park and I think the Hybrid is designed for that. Not sure if worth returning since I only paid $100 but curious if anyone knows the difference in these two boards? Size is correct. Thx

I have no clue on the difference. However I do ride a Watson hybrid at the cable and boat.

I like the hybrid behind the boat personally. It does have a little flex, but no where near the flex of a "flex" board. The little bit of flex helps take out the shock of any out of position landings. But it is still stiff enough it doesn't affect the pop.

I tried both on the boat and Deluxe flexes too much and it is slow for my taste. It is wood core so feeling will be completely different from snappier/faster S4 foam+glass. Depending which board you are coming from it can take you a while to get used to it. Another option is : Use it a couple of times and resell it to a friend.. It is a bargain anyway

On further review
the S4 retails is $350 http://www.wakeworld.com/products/in..._detail&p=6747
and the Hybrid Duluxe is $500 http://www.wakeworld.com/products/in..._detail&p=6714

So they sent me a more expensive board. I think I will keep it to avoid hassle of mailing back and maybe it will get me to try out cable park.
Either way, a good deal for $100

Where are you buying new boards for $100?
