ask fozzy

LOL Not yet... soon

They are exactly the same as 08 Lunacy.

ADEN.

What i really need to know is how it is in semi choppy conditions I will ride 70/30 ultra flat water/small chop and lumps. Thoughts?

It's not great in the chop, but then again it's not that bad!

sci rock some bindings and get a concept or a tempo from cardboard

concept was by far best board ive ever ridden next was the Jaimie pro of 07 and recoil comp.

i rode the first lunacy and really wasnt that impressed by it.. dont see why people fuss about it soo much... too square and flat, far better boards for slicks out there IMO...

I agree, I had an 08 Lunacy hands down the worst board I have ever owned. too square, too flat etc..... woeful in chop.

rumours have it that lenten himself isnt even that happy with it..

read it on some forum somewhere.. think might be on scoop i cant remember.. didnt say he hates it but i just HEARD that he isnt overly happy about it.

go to the shops and get something 136+ with rocker and get some booties

OK well this year the board has very slightly more rocker.
Have to say if your riding in chop where it is really close together then I prefer the sx. As I tend to get spray off the front..
However if the chop is a bit further apart I don't have this prob..
I rode the 129 all last year and loved it to bits, this year started on the 129 but now riding the 132 as easier to land blind on and you can land slower without dropping off the plane..
I gotta say done heaps of kite loops last year and board is so strong..

i'd say it is comparable to using a tray from mcdonalds

Well it is classified as a 'HARDCORE FREESTYLE' board..... Designed by Ruben, for his own use!

soo what your saying ADEN is ruben rides weak and can get away with a mc donalds tray? hmmmm

but seriously yeh boards not the greatest thing out there, rather spend the coin on something decent. flat rocker = less predictable pop, harder landings hence heavier on the knees.

noww bindings + bigger board = more resistance against kite = more pop + ability to unhook in stronger winds due to better edge control and security

smooth rocker little bit more than standard ktieboards = more predictable ride with good pop and soft landings, must be stiff for the pop side.. = JOY

all this equates to a sweet ride

I do agree however flatter rocker = planing earlier which = use in lighter winds. Not all of us can get those constant strong winds u guys get in WA.

Its not harder to use at all.... It is just simply a crap board.

Aden : Am i right in thinking you ride an 09 and probably rode an 08 prior ?

If so do yourself a favour and try something else.......

I perservered with my 08 for almost two months simply because i had paid 8 or 9 hundred for it and it was supposed to be great for aggressive hardcore freestyle.. pfffft............ IMO freestyle is NOT wakestyle and the Lunacy is more a wakestyle board ( allbeit a crap one) .which only really even remotely works in super butter flat water.

Prior to this I rode Underground FLX's & Cardboards both in 06 -07 both were better boards than the 08 Lunacy. I am now riding a Cardboards and a Nobile ( MArk Shinn model ) again both these boards **** all over the 08 Lunacy ( cant talk about the 09 as I have not ridden one AND WILL NOT. )

I still have my 08 Lunacy in the garage and not even my mates want to ride it and some of them are riding boards from 06 -07.

Says something doesnt it ?

sounds like someone has a problem, OK we get the point that you dont like it. Doesnt mean other people wont. If you ride most flat water and are into wake and free then there's nothing wrong with it. I quite actally like the board. I hop onto other boards and they feel sloppy. Yes its square looking, but that makes it abit more aggressive. I would recommend the board, but i would also say try it before buying, because everyone rides differently. Hence everyone likes different boards

I really couldn't be bothered to go on about this board,
you carry on Bit^%in about it., have fun potter.
