I came off of riding the Syn and have been riding the B-side this season. I have been really happy with it, but got to ride the Murray this weekend and was blown away! It edges similar to the Syn (which I like), meaning it's quick on and off of edge, but the pop is out of this world! I know it's technically a guys board, but the graphics are siiiick if you ask me!
Who says that just because you are a girl you have to ride a "girl's" board?
I am also loving the Syn bingings this year. I didn't like them at all last year but they really stepped up this year to give us girls a quality boot! I've even had guys tell me that if they came in their size they would rock the Syn boot this year.
I don't know much about demos in your area, but I'm sure if you look up some local shops etc. you'll find someone who can hook you up!
Happy Shredding!
