Hey Everyone,
I'm looking into a new board and wondering if anyone has any insight into these 3 boards...
I mainly ride fairly powered up in choppy conditions and am an intermediate rider.
I've heard great things about the Trax, Blunt, and Joke but just wanted to see if I could dig a little deeper.
Thanks
B

Wainman JOKE!
Better ride than the Blunt II but much different design and construction.

Trax cuts chop like none other. Most people who have tried my Trax bought one after. Try and test them all to see whats best for you.

i am a big fan of the trax , tryed many boards but not the blunt so i cant compare. One thing that any board on my feet yet has reached is the confort level of that board. You can be hours on the water and it is really smooth. Pop ? it has but you will find stiffer boards so better pop there.
One other good thing about that board is that you can hold the kite power really well as well the rail can take 2 much of a power. If you want to ride overpowered its on thing the board will help you with .
In order to do that you lose a bit of bottom end if you compare to other boards so have that in mind .
overall its a board that you will keep and enjoy, fast on riding it accelerates very good on demand and a well rounded board. If you ride on flat waters (no chop at all) you can find better boards. If you have the first chop (that little 15cm and more) then you will love that board

He nailed it Trax is sooo smooth. If you ride flat water the FOne Acid is just as good as the Trax on flat water. I have not tried a Joke so cannot compare but these FOne are really something special, hopefully you can test all the boards you are interesten in. Bet you a beer you pick the Trax or Acid, or SK8 another good one from FOne. I have no affiliation.
