Aloha,
currently riding xcal wood 141 w/ boots and have the feeling that i want something different.
The xcal feels like it has little too much rocker and flex, its kinda slow and starts resonating when the water is not completely flat.
Want something faster and stiffer, with less rocker. Should go upwind easy since im trying to progress my unhooked riding and cba struggling to make ground after crashes.
I know the 2017 Echo has ~4,2cm rocker and the 2016 model has even less. Element is roughly the same, but still 2cm difference to the xcal which i measured at 5,8-6cm.
Grindbase would be nice, but most of the park boards like refraction/flow etc. have even more rocker.
Does anyone have any recommendations and/or experience with boards in that category?
Weight: 80kg/~175lbs.
cheers
