The choice is obvious, get the Laluz....such a sick board...the only non Shinn board I would buy in a heartbeat! Oh and don't get hung up about the 2012 model..I guarantee its almost exactly the same as the 2011. I second this comment. Most shops would rather sell a new model year board but now is ...

Anyone tried the 15 TS ? How is it as opposed to last year 15m Taboo ? I am building my new quiver and I have the 8m and 10m TS. I will probably order the new 15m TS but I would like to know if it is really more powerful than the taboo 15 ? The Taboo and TS 15 are VERY similar, especially consideri...

If you test the TS with the Best bar be sure to try the kite with and without line extensions. Personally, I really preferred all the TS I tested on 23m lines or another brand bar with 23m lines. I tested the 15m,12m and 9m over a three day period. On 23m lines the 12 & 9m reminded me a lot of the R...

Everyone mentions how lightweight the Laluz is. When you are in the air it's immediately obvious this is one featherweight board. So I was curious what the weight difference is between the two boards. Slingshot did some innovative things this year to knock a half pound off the Misfit but look what w...

Just received this comment from a recent Xenon Laluz convert:

By the way, the Xenon board you sold me is great! Soft landings just as described, my sessions have doubled in length because my legs aren't taking such a beating.

Just curious, I keep always hearing about the 135, how does the Laluz 132 behave in chops? Still good pop with smooth ride/landings?

Yes!!!

I have a 127 Rogue Wave Custom which is a very nice board. The Rogue has a looser feel, or least mine does. Lee can adjust that characteristic somewhat when he builds. I would describe the Rogue as more skatey. The Laluz is more precise feeling and seems to rail upwind better, without being catchy. ...

Here's a few images that show the edge profile. Let me know if you need some type of measurement. Edge reminds me of some Crazyfly boards. Note: fins are 2010 model on one of our demo boards.

Xenon is very new in the USA and feedback so far is spot on with what you are reading. I think I mentioned this elsewhere but it says a lot. We had one of our shop riders, who was also supported by a major kite brand, cough up some of his own $ to ride a Laluz instead of his free board for all the s...

Lately we have been grabbing the Taboo 15m. We flew the Zephyr a fair amount last season and liked it but it really did feel like a big kite and was little much for us since we are lighter weight riders. The 15m Taboo is obviously smaller by 2 meters than the Zephyr, but it seems to be doing the job...
