wakestyle board advice re. cabrinha cbl please...

Postby dragnfly » Mon Oct 23, 2017 1:52 pm

I've been given a 2016 cabrinha cbl 140 - not used it yet.

I was considering buying a wakestyle board, and was then given this one.

I know the cbl is billed as a park board, for kickers and sliders etc - and it seems quite bendy too (it seems more flexible than my old flexi hadlow II freestyle board).

Unfortunately, there is no kite park near me - so all my wakestyle will be popped off the water (I'm still only at raley to blind/ shifty & back to wrap etc stage).

Now - is the CBL an ok board for that sort of stuff, or is it too flexible and much more for parks? I thought wakestyle boards were supposed to be really stiff?

Thanks
