Ok I don't usually brag about boards as I have had the same BEST Drive series 131 for 5yrs and then thought I upgraded to a 2010 North Team Series – nope such a heavy board…..then I discovered the Xenon LaLuz 2012 – less than 3kg for a 135mm – WTF??

So I hit the guys up at Intheloop – shameless plug – and they talked me into a 2013 model……..Best decision ever…..long story short……I purchased a 135x41 and we got some unseasonable winds today in FNQ. One word, AWESOME. I have been trying some Un-hooked trips on my heavy North board and getting nowhere. So I tried my first raily and unhooked kite loop back roll, Landed…WTF?

The Laluz is so light and has great pop, combined with super comfortable foot straps that lock down to give you that secure comfort feel, I felt super comfortable trying all my hooked in jumps and attempting new unhooked tricks – granted they were not pretty & clean landings, but landed….

In the chop…again AWESOME. Point the board upwind…AWESOME…see where I'm going with this???

I have been kiting for 6+years now and tried lots of different boards…..recommend the Laluz 100%

P.s – my north is up for sale if anyone is a North Freak - www.seabreeze.com.au/Classifieds/Kitesurfing-Boards/~aml76/2010-North-Team-Series-135-cm.aspx?search=5nd1NASKJ9iyfeYe65%2fCqA%3d%3d
