Ozone because of all the foilers, after that it's probably LF for regular riding.
I would think Ocean Rodeo would be popular in that area...

Mid-Atlantic, East Coast US, no clear leader I'd say. On a day with 10 riders out, they might be on 10 different brands. I guess Best, Cabrinha, Liquid Force, Flysurfer are most popular at our local spot, but only by a small margin. Also several people each on Naish, Slingshot, Ozone, Spleene, North...

In my home spot (Como lake, Italy), there is not a real predominance of a brand. Generally speaking, I think about the pumps the ranking is:
1) RRD
2) North
3) F-One - Ozone - Cabrinha
4) Core
5) Best - Airush
About the foils, only FS, never seen a Chrono.
About the trend, I think RRD/North/F-One are stable or slightly losing popularity. Cabrinha is for sure selling less than in the past here around, most of the locals don't like the bar. Airush is growing, not at a very fast pace but every year I see one or two more of their kites. Also Core is growing, helped by the fact that their price here in Italy is only a little higher than the average.
