Hyperlite Roam Wakeboard??

Question

I think i'm gonna get one, cause i hear their a real fun board to ride, and i live near the Orlando OWC so it would be a great board for all the rails and ramps they have..

I was just looking for some feedback on how ppl like it??

Answer 1

the roam was a board made to make all of the snowboarders switch to wakeboarding,  it was designed  for more of a knees-bent, railriding style where your going to have to rely on the profile of the board to set a turn and hold an edge.when youre riding this thing, the toeside edge will actually flex differently than the heelside edge, there is almost no better board for the sliders and kickers that are at the owc..

i reccomend it.. but not as a main board for non-slider/kicker riding

and definatley not to learn on..

good luck!

Answer 2

it is made to be like a snowboard. you can do more surface tricks, but have fun landing if u plan on jumping the wake. with no fins it is hard. it is a great board for rails and ramps at a cable park and such. if u are doing rails and ramps it is an amazing board!!! buy it!!!!!!!!!
