Podcast #133:

This week, The Kiteboarder Magazine and ASnews.net podcast finishes up covering the 2009 Liquid Force line with legendary shapers Jimmy Redmon and Pat Rawson.

Since the beginning, Liquid Force has always had an extensive board line and 2009 is no different! With 12 twin tip and kite-specific surfboards in the line up, you won’t want to miss this informational interview. What changed and what didn’t? What’s new? What new construction techniques are being used? What board is best for a beginner, wakestyle rider, light wind slop surfer or all around rider?

Due to different time zones, this interview will be pre-recorded but you can ask your questions here! Just post them before this Friday, November 15, by 3p and we’ll ask them for you. You can then download the interview at your convenience at http://www.kiteforum.tv, http://www.thekiteboarder.com and http://www.asnews.net

Check out the Dec08 issue of the mag. We did a feature on the roots of Liquid Force and there is a photo of cofounder Tony Finn holding up a poster of Shannon Best when he was sponsored by LF Wake. It's a pretty funny blast from the past!
