Surprised at how early I can ride this board (i'm 94kg) considering it is only 128x38 and think this must be down to the straight rails?
What is the difference between the 2009 and the newer Fyradical S?

Flyradical S
Managed to pick up a new Flyradical S from 2009.

Re: Flyradical S
I think I never tried the 2009, just from 2010 on or so...
But, if it handles well for you, and works also in lighter winds, great!
Let's see how it works if you are really powered up!

Re: Flyradical S
No, looks pretty similar!
How tall are you?
I noticed your pads are pretty straight. I use the very outside holes, this way you can put more pressure on the tip.
And I have more angle, then the front foot can twist better into the strap without too much pressure on the side.

Re: Flyradical S
Good observation.
I had noticed you have yours more 'duck'. And will move to the outside holes.
I'm 5' 11" 94kg
