Hey toppy, check out our 06 range www.cardboarding.com I know it sounds like I am pimping but I think it would be hard to find another board that offers as much as ours do. And best of all they are made right here in OZ.

Any one like to compare features?

Cheers Dan

Yeah man..

Id hell reccommend the 06 SS SX.
Had it a few months now and have nothing but praise for it.

Except that the bloody bottom of the damn thing is black, meaning:
a) scratches show up really easily (dont worry, youll get over it)
b) when you come off it, and if its upside down, ull have a **** of a time trying to find it. As i can attest to spending in excess of 2 hours searching the waters of melville for the bloody thing, only to find it around the corner, scratched to all hell on some rocks.

But in terms of riding it, its bloody awesome.

I think without a doubt the most comprehensive and inovative range of boards is Airush.

If you are in Perth drop in to Airborne Kitesurfing and borrow the ones you are interested in and decide for your self.

Try Addiction kiteboards, made right here in Perth.
Plenty of flex, tough build, great all round boards

I have a 666, nice looking board. Havent put it through its paces yet as a footstrap popped out while I was riding (didnt tighten it up enough). But from all reports they are very solid. Read the technical section, they're taking board design way past 10mm divinycell and a few sheets of pbt. Its easy to make a board, the hard part is designing it.

nobile make burtons top range of snowboards their trying to bring that tech to kiting with the help of mark shinn.

I would completely recommend cardboards (www.cardboarding.com) I bought one online a few months ago and absolutely love it. Really high quality and the graphics you get to choose yourself, as well as stance width and a few other options.... and after looking at the updated web page there are more graphics and shapes too choose from. Aside from this they a fair bit cheaper!

My mate tried my board in Esperence about three weeks back and loved it that much, he hit the interent cafe and ordered one the same day, he couldn't believe the upwind capability of it. Nice n light and looks great!

Each to their own I suppose but I would suggest taking a look.

be sure to try out underfground flex, they are very strong and the lightest boards I've ridden, excellent for board offs.

Test as many boards as you can before you part with your readies.

Make sure you test ride the boards from Liquid Force. I like them
