any crew out there riding the liquid force WLF i am thinking of getting one and i am interested to hear the gos.

It sure is wide but at 97kg and not much time these days to get out and kite i am struggling with my 125 lightwave. Top board my lightwave do not get me wrong it rips... the problem is the 40 something rider who still loves his bacon double cheese burger deluxs mmmmm.

So any big guys out there try the WLX what do you think? And that extra width... does the board still carve the top of chop and does it ride toe side? How does the extra width effect toe side riding and toe side carving turns?

ta for da tip.

Yea i will check out your board next time it looks hot-may be a bit rich for me though.

Man i got bashed today but it was a great session. It was still going strong even really late. Can not do it morrow (child care) but the outgoing tide will be perfect for thursday arvo as long as the wind hangs in- going to use my leash! out going tide there as sun is going down- it sounds a bit like "has anyone seen my board" and i really do not want to be singing that tune!!

Its a good board, a little heavy compared to some boards, but I doubt you are ever going to notice the weight on the water.
Rides toeside ok, and carves through chop well, especially with your ballast, I weigh a bit less at 75kg. It rides ok up to approx 15knots worth of chop.

Another option is to wait approx 2 weeks and get a new Underground 05 model FLX 1.52

Cya and
