What can I say - a board that actually looks like a kite board! Nice rocker profile, single concave base and you can even fit bindings on this stick which not too much hassel. You would need the FAST plate or the PRO plate (you will need to drill another hole in the PRO plate tho (not sure how this will effect the warrenty status?!?
The 133 comes in a funny pink colour (should have been grey) but this is being changed to white for the next patch so I've been told by ML. The 130 is black and red and looks sick... nice board for lighter riders.
Other LF sticks come out soon... SWEET
I've ridden the 133 Recoil around a bit and Padi has ridden it for probably 8-10 sessions now...
We both came to a common agreement that IT NEEDS BIG FINS...
The board just flys upwind like all of the cardboards do, goes fast etc,
But.... if you ever hope to turn on a wave face, carve to change direction or POP (even a little tiny hop over a wave etc)... dont bother if you have anything less than 2 inch fins... the board just slides like you wouldnt believe...
I shall give another review when Padi puts the 2" fins on it ![]()
Cheers 4 that mate but im dwn in sth australia
wat do u think of the board?
has it got alot of pop?
wakestyle!!
Hey,
This board pops really well. Not sure what you guys are eating there but fins don't make the pop. Its all about flex and concave the board has. I am able to pop on a board with or without fins, I has the small LF fins on the 133!! Take a look at "Dre", he uses tiny fins on his Custom and most of the time no fins at all. If you are in SA the guys at Glascraft have the 133 LE (LE as a new colour is due soon) and 130 in stock. Give them a call on 82902200.
just askin rhys porter if hed tried with bigger fins as he said dont bother with anything less than 2's
thanx for other info mate
