Are u lookin for the board or the whole package with watson boots cause we got both. The number for the shop is 1-559-734-7471 you can give me a call at the shop tomorrow if you want and I can get you the price. We'll cut you a good deal cause were trying to make room for the 07 stuff.

Have you rode one yet by the way. The board is wide, super light, and has a spine down the middle that gives the board supper soft landings. I ride the 136 shane and weigh about a buck fifty. It has the same spine as the watson.

i havent ridden one yet but i ride a substance 38 now and really like it. its getting kinda old and i realized i could get an 06 now for a good price, so i thought the watson would be a good choice because he has designed both the boards. i was lookin at closed toe bindings too because i wanna jump on the wagon and see if they're as good as everyone says they are. but i just dont know if i should hit the 138 or 134... havent rode the shane either, but ive heard good things.. any words of advice?

also i heard the shane bucks pretty hard while the watson is more consistent and smooth, is this the deal?

hey bro back at work and actually the shane does have some explosive pop but its super smooth. The watson i would think is different cause it has a different rocker. Plus it has molded in fins and the shane has cupped fins on the outside molded on the inside so its a 8 fin setup technically some people dont like that kinda grip. As far as board size you could ride either. The difference would be the 138 is gunna give you more pop but wont spin as fast. You'll lose a bit of pop with a shorter board but spin easier and quicker. If your riding a 138 substance go with the watson it just basically a super substance

Hey man no problem just goes to show that this is a great community. If you really have a passion for the sport you should be willing to help anyone. Once again no problemo your board is packaged and ready to go. It'll be on ups today. I also hooked you up with some stickers bro. Thanks alot for the business too.

Jump on that Watson if you can, you won't regret it. This board has tons of pop, super soft landings, its really light, and surprisingly fast for a 3 stage. And it doesn't hurt that the 06 graphics were the dopest ever put on a wakeboard.

I agree, Nick, except for the hideous graphics
