Ridden the remote lots and been riding a New and they are very comparable. Except the News are CHEAPER! Also you gotta check out VIRTUE they are bomb and durable as hell.

man, we're not too observant. I was watching the second WM web edit (I think the one with easy rider) and austin's dino board is sitting in the rack with the other WM models.

Anyway, it looks like that board is back in stock on the wm site, but andrew's model is sold out. get on that ish!

jdarr, WM might be super similar to NEW, but WM has a TEAM that they support as well as working on a team video to progress the sport. I don't see new being involved in anything like this..

I'm riding my old new right now and rode a water monsters and they are 2 completely different boards. WM was better by FAR.

actually, that's where I'm buying mine from. so I don't think they have any more in stock. Laughing

I think the team riders had that board for awhile. you can look back at austin's pro video and he rode that board in a few clips also.

JakeS. I understand your point and I would like to see New get a team together and represent at the events. It is too bad they dont. There a lot of good riders that would love to part of a team.

Randomhero14 - Its all preference. I said COMPAREABLE not SAME. Im glad you like ur WM.

My board came fast to SC, maybe 4 days. I was very impressed!

The watermonster deck is amazing.
It is very quick. The rocker is awesome. The weight is on point.
It is a very fun deck.

Just took first set on my 39.5. shuvs, front bigs, back bigs, first try......this doesn't happen for me often. Biggest thing I noticed is stability when landing. Did an in/out front big and don't have to worry about getting bucked off from stomping so hard. Edges are great. Rocker is rad. Weight is rad. Even landed on a kick flip (fell after) and I've never done one. These things are rad and my first set sold me on em.
