Just ran this board at the lake, first thing I noticed was the board was quite fast, similar to a liquid force. The continuous rocker produced great pop off the wake, believe it or not, better than the Parks. Here's the biggie, Super..Super light, I noticed I was more comfortable tweaking and poking normal jumps, and the Inverts and Double-ups floated with ease. Landings were a little bit slippery, but not bad enough to scar the performance of this board. Hope this helps out anyone looking to replace their Parks board.<ul class=rating><span class=ratedisplaying><h2>Rating</h2><li><label><b>Overall</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Pop</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Tracking</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/4_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Weight</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Spin</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Landings</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> </span></ul> I have been a Hyperlite/Parks rider for years, looking for a new board with similar characteristics has been tough.

It offers great pop yet soft landings wake to wake with no worry of the board slipping out once I hit the water. Extremely light with a durable build - in all everything lines up with this wakeboard.<ul class=rating><span class=ratedisplaying><h2>Rating</h2><li><label><b>Overall</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Pop</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Tracking</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Weight</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Spin</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Landings</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> </span></ul> I have to say this board is pricey but well worth the buy.

It made for a horribly rough ride in the least bit of choppy conditions. The pop is in fact insane, boasting higher air than any other board I had ridden but even to that affect it was no consistent each time I hit the lip of the wake. Perhaps I need some adjusting but this had not been the norm with any other wakeboard I've had. The board surely has design potential but may very well be a perfect condition only board.<ul class=rating><span class=ratedisplaying><h2>Rating</h2><li><label><b>Overall</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Pop</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Tracking</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Weight</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Spin</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Landings</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> </span></ul> Personally I didn’t feel that this board was good for anything but perfect conditions.

Friends and I were pulling raileys for the first time because of the pop this board has. Rusty and Aaron really pulled one off in the shaping of the Marek. Yet it is so light you really wont be able to fully know until you lift it yourself.<ul class=rating><span class=ratedisplaying><h2>Rating</h2><li><label><b>Overall</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Pop</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Tracking</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Weight</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Spin</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Landings</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> </span></ul> “I didn’t wanna spend that much on a board, but looks like the check book is coming out tomorrow”

With a sturdy and consistent feel that offers ridiculous pop you really can't go wrong. Everything from edging to surface spins transition well with this board. The landings are a bit hard but nothing that would not be expected to some degree from the huge air you can accomplish.<ul class=rating><span class=ratedisplaying><h2>Rating</h2><li><label><b>Overall</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Pop</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Tracking</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Weight</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Spin</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Landings</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/4_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> </span></ul> I really feel the Hyperlite Marek is hands down the best board I have ever ridden.

I boroughed it from my guy to try out and kept over rotating my tricks because of how easy it was to throw the Marek. With any light board that throws this much pop, landings are going to come into play and yet again this wakeboard shines with soft flat landings out in the flats.<ul class=rating><span class=ratedisplaying><h2>Rating</h2><li><label><b>Overall</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Pop</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Tracking</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/4_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Weight</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Spin</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> <li><label><b>Landings</b></label> : <img src="/wp-content/plugins/review-ratings/5_stars.gif" width="86" height="16" /></li> </span></ul> Uber light and has super poppy.
