LF Board for light wind...

Hey there,

What LF board has been the best for light wind (other than the surf-shapes)?

Cheers,

GK

I have a Recoil Comp 137x41 and it starts really early for my big ass...
Square outline (parallel rails) , stiff, flat rocker it is a very good 1 board quiver that starts early. Not so comfy when it blows hard in choppy conditions, you can't get it all...

Thanks bro... I have heard good things about the Recoil Comp (especially in flat).

Have you ridden a WLF?

for waktstyle the wlf is the earliest starting board out there, it gets going well before the concept 139 and recoil 137. I can start just as early in bindings on the concepts as on the recoil comp 137 in straps......or close! Unless you want real light wind perfonance like a door, get the wlf if you are 90kg+ and the concept if less heavy. I love the concept in bindings as it performa reallywell in all conditions
