I ride the PS3 (06) and I am thinking of changing up a bit to the Watson. Looking for some input since I can't really demo. Thanks

I rode my new 08 Watson 142 this weekend and I am very happy with it. I jump twice as high doing nothing different than I did with my LF Subject. Rides fast to the wake and the pop is sweet.

had a ps3 137, too tight and not enough pop for me. Abosolutely love both of my new watsons! good speed, loose and poppy.

i like the watson way more than the ps3. more pop off the wake.... i also like the sharper rail and moulded fins on the watson.

and transit bindings.

Yes, more people vouching for the Watson than just me. The only thing that I wish was different about my Watson was that it was more aggressive when charging the wake. Other than that, amazing board.

Are you guys going finless or using the 1.1's?
I use the .8's on my PS3.

Faster board or slower?

I rode a ps3 and watson. The watson is a little more poppy but the ps3 was very forgiving and felt like a feather in the air. I felt like I was able to do more with the ps3 than with the watson. My vote goes to the ps3

Finless, and it's a little slow, IMO. Out of probably 35-50 sets on the watson, I've only caught my edge twice, and one of them was on a surf carve into the wake gone wrong, so I'd say it's a fairly forgiving board as well...

I have the PS3 & the Watson. The PS3 feels faster & lighter. The Watson has a nice pop & softer landings.
