I know that Hyperlite boards are not too popular with a large number of members here, but I like the feel because it holds like my surfboard. I was wondering what the difference was between the Byerly 107 04 and 05. I have a chance to buy either at a pretty good price. I was told that the 05 is much heavier. Any comments. Thanks guys.

Greg T, word. I had a '04 Byerly. It was way too light.

If you like the heavier feel, get the 05 for sure. Also, the 04 seems to have a much sharper edge IMO.
