oh yea besides if you get a mission does nto take much for fins i have a 1inch fins i sanded down to about .8. For that board you probably dont want to go with anyhting over 1.5 hope you get it and your stoked you cant go wrong. speaking of rocker has way more than the fanatic does so you will dig it.. for more wind.

True wakestyle is hard as shit on anything smaller than a 9. You would be sending the kite all over the place once you have un-hooked and poped. I agree that the mission is an awesome board but not my choice in 30+. Last time I tried a ralley to blind on a 7 it went horrably wrong and hurt pretty bad. Looping a 7 is not really that fun. Or atleast my idea of fun.
hmm, it's been a while since you've seen me ride hasn't it? my kite quiever is a 12 meter and a 7 meter(switchblades).
I rather ride the 7. The 12 meter is still a sick kite, i learned powerd front mobes on it, but they are more fun on my 7.


I personally don't like big boards...

the only big board i have rode that i have really liked was the board Scott let me try out in Saint Augustine. (sorry forget the name)
but i'd rather ride my 122 FLX, or 133 custom.

also i only weigh a buck 40 :lol:
