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.

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.

Have a search on my review for the LFX

They are a wicked board and hell sexy!


You won't regret LF for sure. :)
