Okay wanted to touch base back on this for anyone looking in the future...
Took the Native out for the first session at the "local" cable park (REALLY need more wake parks in Houston/Greater Houston Area) and the board absolutely RIPS.
Thank you to everyone who said to get the Slingshot Native. The flex tips and overall flex of the whole board are awesome. Great for locking in on presses and hitting rails any which way. Can really throw the board around on spins as well. Coming off the rails throwing in an extra front or back 1 or 3 come easily.
The 150 size and width of the board make hitting kickers a blast. They've got some pretty solid large kickers at the park and I was able to hit them the whole session without the legs and knees getting shot.
Still can throw some fun butters and mess around in open sections of the water to top it all off.
Great all around board, really excited to get it out behind the boat. If you are having hesitation on the Native I would say it is worth trying, definitely does not get the hype it deserves.
