I have several wm and Remote boards. Remote have just been more durable honestly. The water mosters graphics have peeled off and they have allot of dents in the rails and nose. I mean they are all still ridable and I like the shape. It's just the remotes seem to be indestructible.

EXCELISOR, I can say they are both great choices.

they are no where near the same shape


i will say I like the "build" of the wm better

having the plys over the concave seems to help them stay together better

my remote concave plys are separating from the main plys
ive got it stripped, going to epoxy it and coat the board in a resin and i think it will be g2g

i would say buy a thicker remote over the thinner builds

if its between the taylor remote or a WM i would get a WM

if its between the thicker remote or a wm i would get a remote

so I would get either the Yan or Leo remote, or a WM

I just got a Yan pro model from Remote and love it. So far the board feels super stable and feels like a tank. Can't comment on WM though but the boards looks awesome.
