Manufacturer's Description:
In the last three years Scott Bouchard and I have designed eight different shapes with Hyperlite. The designs we've come up with have helped create the idea for the Premier series and the Parks series, plus boards from some of the other guys. We know what works, and we're always trying to come up with the freshest ideas.
I didn't want to change my shape for this year because my line of boards does everything I was looking for. My board gets so much traction from the deep molded-in outer fins, cupped rails, and the two-tier rail. A Byerly board has a lot of grip, but it still releases quickly off the wake because the center fin is only 1.2" deep. My pro model still has the "Byerly pop", explosive, abrupt, whatever you want to call it - it suits my style. It also lands a lot softer with the center beam in the middle.
-- Scott Byerly
Byerly Features:
2.7" 3-Stage Rocker - a bucking pop off the wake for an explosive wake to wake style.
Two Tier Rail - the board doesn't sit quite as deep on the water as a step down rail but has just as much edge hold.
Deep Center Beam - super smooth landings even with a 3-stage kick.
Two 1.2" P-Wing Machined Aluminum Fins - designed for a quick release and a moderate feel.
Four 1.0" Deep Molded-In Fins - Hyperlite's thinnest and deepest molded-in fins for a knees bent style of riding that relies more on the outer fin.
Deep Cupped Rails - a more responsive grip into a rail-ride turn.
Vented Channels - less friction on the water when on rail for a faster feel.
Jib Base - a stronger material with a more controlled feel for riders looking to get their jib on.
Butch Innovation - Scott Bouchard and Byerly continue to push the limits of progressive wakeboard shapes.

Cons:

Not for beginners

This is an outstanding board with great pop. The DNA core gives it a nice flex, but it also makes it softer. So, be careful on sliders.

None

This is the most awesome board I have ever had the pleasure to ride. I would not recommend it for a beginner it's a little bit too aggresive. If you have a couple years under your belt and want to get your jib on this is the right board.
