Carbon fibre boards!!! Are they worth the cost?

[Boardsportjunkie]

Hi all. Been windsurfing for 27 years and finally made the switch to kiteboarding. My question is are carbon fibre boards worth the cost??? I’ve always had good gear no matter what sport I enjoy. It seems they are worth the investment and I really don’t want to cycle through gear only to find out I should just buy high quality. Any thoughts for the crew here. Thnx in advance for your input

I realized I'm responding to an old post but in case you are still interested I ride Brokite carbon boards and think they are fantastic. Light and responsive.
