09 Spleen Rip

Midgaar - 17-8-2011 at 02:13 PM

I have the chance to buy a 132cm 09 Spleene Rip board for $360. Is this a good deal? This would be my first board so is 132cm big enough for 5'9 150lb to learn on? Thanks for the advice.

depends on what you wind range you're after, its a medium sized board so you'll do fine with it.

i have a 128cm Radical (little boy size) but also perfect for my high wind sessions.

just had a wicked session today locally in Bath water temp (rash + shorts, but probably too still to cold for Coolbreeze). riding a Vapor 11.2m (thinking of Tridude) FB on water always my first pick.

No other opinions? Is the price right? New to water, 150lbs, 13-20mph (12m SLE)...

perfect , rips fast at first, but you'll keep it!
