Hi all,
I'm in the market for a new twintip, mostly freeriding and weigh in at a solid 95kg's.
I'm secretly coveting the North Select 2015, but wonder it it's worth the cash one needs to drop to get it.
Can any of you that have ridden a Select please give me your take on it?
Dave

Hi I ride Selects since 2012. Now I have the 2013 and 2014.
2014 in 138cm. Huge pop and air; fast on the water, upwind riding very good, easy control above 30 knots and so on.
Can't think of anything negative. Straps are also very comfy. 2015 I did not ride yet.
Hope this helps a bit...

Yeah they didn't do much in the way of drastic changes like the team and jamie got. Solid board to do a little of everything, with it really excelling at freeriding and hooked in freestyle. I loved the 2013 and 2014 select.
