Hi bmencer,
(frist I want to say that I'm CF distributer in Israel, no we can continue)
Im very familer with those boards, I use the raptor pro since 2008 and the raptor pro LTD since 2011 the first year that this model born
.
(and today I ride both 2013 Raptor Pro and Raptor pro LTD size 132X41).
altough the name of the board almost identical, those boards are really different.
basiclly on the begining of 2011 I rode the LTD and didn't like the PRO some where on middle of 2012 I fall in love with the PRO more then the LTD.
those days I use them both at the same frequency.
The Raptor Pro LTD is double concave and high rocker board.
has 0 spreay to face, its very smoth board. I call it the orthopedic board --> its like riding fancy car. you always feel comfortable.
The Raptor Pro is single concave and medium rocker.
its very fast board, upwind is unbelievable, hugh pop.-- >more like riding race car, it push you to the limit .
both board have very good pop and very smoth landing.
they are both superb in their field just take the one which fit your style.
Yehonatan Naim.
