OK first things first, lets have some details like - how heavy is him - how tall - how long has he been kiting - what conditions does he kite in i.e. is it in chop - what style of riding is he into, when we know these things we can try and help you :thumb:

If he's into Slingshot how about the new misfit, I'd say from your description a 136, the misfit is billed as a do it all board, that's my 2 cents, lots to choose from so hopefully you'll get some more replys, good luck :thumb:

ya the misfit is the first thing we looked at but he wants something a little cheaper so he wanted the sx or darko but if the misfit is that good we'll look for a cheaper one but if not wats ur guys opinion on the darko
