Anyone have a 136ish Gambler or Wakestyle board

Post by NorCalNomad » Tue Apr 18, 2017 2:28 pm

So I currently have a 139 2015 North Gambler and I'm looking to see how downsizing would feel on such a rockered board for doing unhooked stuff.

Anyone have a gambler in the mid 30's or another wakestyle board in that size I could try?
Listing gear is bad, and you should feel bad.

I got a 138 Tona Pop I can loan you but that's not much of a downsize. I also have a 133 but that's probably a bit too small for you.

I'm sure I can dig up a 136 Tona Flow though, would that be interesting?

Huh, might be worth trying anyways...a cm shorter and .5cm narrower. Also do you have any idea if you can mount Hyperlite Systems on the Pop?

Where do you normally ride?

For wakestyle you probably want a bigger board for stable landings...
I've just been sizing up. Used to have 133, then 138 now 140x42.5 North TS Hadlow
