any experience/rumors/comments/feedback?

I'm not affiliated with them. Just kinda curious about their boards. Particularly the La Luz.

They seem to be the talk of the town over on kiteforum right now. It'd be cool to see what the "non kiteforum" viewpoint is of them.

Discuss!

I didn't want to post, because you asked for non kiteforum posts,
but since most everyone follows most forums, it may be asking to much.
This is what I posted on kiteforum...

I‘ve been riding the 2010 Zenon boards since August. I was not really looking for a new board, but the US distributor (Windzup) had many sizes of both the Laluz and Rayo to ride. My favorite was the Laluz.
I rode the swell in the Gorge, (7M) with amazement at its smooth, surfy ride. Rode the ocean waves (10M) at Manzanita, with equal pleasure.
Back home, we had a day at Bear Lake (12M) that was one of the choppiest water conditions I’ve ever experienced. The 135 Laluz was my choice and I purchased one.
My back yard small reservoir is flat water because of light winds (17M) The 135 Laluz is a joy to ride, with its light wind, early planning ability. I now love this board, I spent a week in South Padre with it. Again, anything from 7M to 17M. Tons of pop, eats chop like a champ, rides surf excellent. The best all around board I’ve been on in 8 years of kiting. Plus the light weight is a big bonus for travel. Worth every penny for this premium brand, board.

boards arrived today. damn these things are light and flexy. I've broken boards before hopefully these will handle the mayhem I am about to unleash on them.

I have the 2010 Laluz 135 and Rayo 134 in my possession now.

planning on posting video and pics as soon as I have them.
