Hi guys,
please give some reviews to help me to choose the best suitable freestyle board.
Now I got a Nobile 666, 132 cm...it is a realy nice board! Nice pop, upwind...!!
I have been reading about CF Raptor and LULUZ...But I have never rode it.
If you have any other sugestion, it will be welcome!
Thanks!!

Love my Xenon Laluz. Nice pop and boosts with soft landings. I tried the Raptor Pro LTD but was underpowered so can't comment on it. Also demo North Team series board if you get a chance. It was a nice crisp board.

Clash makes an awesome freestyle kiteboard. I ride the 138 w/ boots. Really easy on the knees

When you say freestyle, do you mean out and out unhooked, powered kiting? What is your definition of freestyle?
I have the new 2014 laluz which I am riding for a couple of weeks before I comment, but I will make a comment when I know what exactly you intend to do on the board.

well
Just started to do some unhook maneuvers..
I come from a Nobile 666, what is a really good board...
So planing to get a board with a good Pop, and soft landing at the same time...
That is freestyle to me, unhook and play hight and hard...
Thanks for the help kiteboarders!

I bought a 2013 Nobile 2HD about 2 months ago after riding crazy fly raptors for the last 4 years, I just could not get used to it so have put it up for sale, I have just bought a 2013 crazyfly raptor limited carbon board, It is absolutely awesome, board.
