I have the 05 team integrity now. I want a new board and I'm debating between the two sizes . Some input from people who have ridden both sizes would help.
thanks

I find the 39 to be more fun to ride and easier for most tricks.

My toes hang off the 39 haha just a heads up....you get used to it. Sick board that I have really made my own with the rounded rails. I have abused the crap out of it attempting to jib logs and sticks but you really can't tell, and the base will basically slide anything.

Volcomstone167, I didn't say it was better. If you read what I said again, I said that it fits my riding style and is my favorite of the two sizes. Everyone rides different, so you can't just take my word for gospel, it's an offered opinion.

i would say buy the 39.5 because that you already have the the 41.5... so you can alternate between the two.

I'm 5'9" 150 lbs size 10 shoe. I'm going to get the 39 , I have always felt like my stance is to wide so maybe a shorter board will help with that.

libertytatz, How do you mean too wide? A wide stance is stylish!

tahoe, No, you didn't. He's my new boyfriend(especially since you left me), but he doesn't really know what he's saying when it comes to wakeskating yet. Taking the time to get used to a better board is better than sticking with what you're used to most of the time.

That's what she said.

My wide stance robs me of pop, If you keep doing the same thing over and over don't expect different results. I'm stoked on the 39.75 it may unlock the next level. You gotta switch it up and try it all.

Last time i checked that had nothing to do with the board being long, Just becuase the board is longer doesn't meen you neeed to use all that space. But it is important that people realize that a 39 isn't right for everyone, maybe a 41 is good, Maybe you need even bigger...... I know for me I LOVE a 43, sometimes i think its to big for flat land stuff but......... I land it still, and i land it smoot, For w2w riding i feel that a bigger board is a super good choice, I get alog of "nose spray" if I'm riding a really steep wake, and i wear contacts i know that sounds lame but a bigger board keeps my vision clearer for tricks like Indy shuvs and so on........

Try a big board and try a small board i think you'll be shocked at what you prefer. Remeber kidies NIck OWNS but its not the board that he rides or the shoes that he wears, Its the drive that he has to be the best that he can be......... and nothing more.

If Integrity made a 43 , I would get one of those too.
