I have a 2014 Naish Monarch which I really like, but have been offered a really good price on a 2016. If anybody has both is there much of a difference between them?

Mainly flatwater kiting, a mix of basic unhooked and big air/old school

Any help appreciated

Cheers

I rode both and the 2016 is far better than the 2014. it's quicker lighter and looks cooler! Just don't put boots on it ad it may snap! Definitely worth the upgrade.

I had Monarch 2015 then 2016 i think if you go with straps go for 2015 i had 136 size nice board nice rocker the 2016 is more stiff more rocker and more heavy
