Last years boards are the best ones!
If they make it through a whole year without being torn to shreds on these forums they must be OK.
The bonus is you actually get to use one before you hand over your grand, cause someone who bought one gave you a go.
Then you buy the board cheaper and use that while you wait to try this years gear.

Exactly Charl Dv. Shops are running out of everything above 128 and below 156 3-5 weeks after their entire shipment has arrived. Although most makes and models have their little features, it is mainly about surface area on the water and I feel most of the shops are a little off the mark.
Looking over Perth shops in the last few days, theres not much choice for the average kiter wanting the average board

i must admit best boards were great but not quite right 4 me. i had a 125 drive and that was awsome, i mean im reasonably heavy but u really want a fast board that is able 2 keep a strong edge, some concave for chop is nice.. but yes i gota say the Jaime is the sickest board iv ever ridden! so fast, sick pop, nice landings.
