trying to figure out if any worth buying an old-ish brand new board
once I had a RRD Poison and loved it! now looking for a bit more rocker, flat-water oriented one.
It seems there are some sales on 2016 boards... and wondering what you flat-water aficionados think of those boards?

custom vs CBL vs flow vs TS Hadlow? all 2016

Cheers

I brought a 2016 custom to replace the 2012 one i had. Nothing like the original. I Should of done some research, The cbl is most like the old custom.

the 2016 custom isnt much diff to the ace in rocker

Thanks guys!
I might add also the Gambler to the list as it seems a few used ones can be found :D

on the economy side also the boots: are those hyperlite frequency at $200 worth/any good for kiting?

I know I should get the right stuff, but a bit tight at the moment, and still a good desire to kite hard :))

I have had a few boards, cardboards, monk, vanhunks, gambler, livewire, now back on the gambler, 2015 one to be exact. I can't find one that's better for me yet, I have not tested the newer ones but don't want to risk the $ when I know the going is good on the 15 and one came up in hardly used condition so I snapped it up for cheap! Stoked. The flow is close every thing I had read about the flow seems to be legit interms of feel and how it rides, can't go wrong with that. Would be keen to try a pop and compare to the gambler.

happy shredding !
