    Lightbulb LES? Anyone know where i can buy one new?

    my board cracked today and im looking to buy a lands end skimboard carbon M standard as i weigh 158-160 with a base color no design, but i cant seem to find any and it seems nearly impossible online. Can anyone help me? and also how long does the process of shipping it to my location would take and cost if its directly to me or a pick up from a nearest board shop?
    Is it easier to just get a exile carbon? or is the process of getting a lands end skimboard worth it

    i've seen a few les boards snap right in half. saw one get a crack right through the middle after doing an air off a thigh high wave...the rider probably only weighed around 130 pounds and the board was only 2 weeks old...

    les boards have some sick designs, but i would just go for the exile

    My friend has a LES that's lasted him the past 3 years. It's carbon. Depends on the rider, not just their weight either. People say Grapes break easily but the majority I've seen have been a couple of years old.
    You've got that nasty bounce.

    yeah but his is an older lands end. i heard from the mexican locals that les switched owners recently, and they changed the way their boards are constructed (clearly not for the better)

    Well, that sucks. I was thinking about selling one of my boards so I can try out a LES. Guess not.

    There's one for sale on the for sale board. Not new, but it looks like it's in good shape.
