Your dumb if you buy an unproven board just because it has a nice finish and looks good.

RPM - isn't that what and how kiteboarding started? Unproven? Looks good? unknown?

Do you think we could say OUR sport is still growing and developing?

Hey adrian is a great shaper and designer. He started uinderground boards .
The new range is made in the cabrinha factory so build quality is excellent

The new foot straps are easy to use and the construction is bullet proof. James has only had 2 hrs on his but he likes it. Hes gone from an underground styx to the vangard.

No wake-style boards (the Bootleg?) available yet?
I bought a cheap second-hand Underground Steeze the other day. Nice board, but I'd like to put a lighter set of boots on it. Unfortunately you can't stick on modern M6 bindings as the distances are wrong. Ironically the Styx/Crypt of the same year is OK.

I think thats just the angle of the shot. The fins are available in 50/40/30 so something for everyone, and they are a really cool bright lime green colour, not like the ones in the shot.

Exact release date is not clear, but there is a real working New Wave in Sydney which Axis team rider Rich Stenning will be testing down at Wanda, he picked it up yesterday.

Anyone want to have a look at the newave or even a ride, I will be at Dolls Point (No waves at Wanda today) round 4:30.
Board looks awesome- can't wait to give it a go.
