I don't know much about the VE boards but I can comment on the WRP boards.
Very high quality, no stick crinkle coat powder coat, built in tunnel stiffener, added traction and they look sweet!
oh and it's hard to beat the price $178 shipped in the lower 48.

Just recieved mine. Extremely fast delivery even to northern Canada, great craftsmanship, and great price! Cant be beat!
do you also have the wide board kits?
Yes, we have both.
sent you a pm Paul
not alot of opinions out there???
i would go with ve too
What is the price on the VE boards? Are they in a wide kit as well?
I don't have experience with either. I think they both look like a really good option. Personally, I would probably go with the Van Amburg if i was buying right now. I just like the look a bit better and I've seen some of their other stuff up close so I would be pretty confident about the quality. I don't think you are going to make a wrong decision either way. Check out the Increasing your IQ sticky at the top of the page. There are threads on both of those wide board kits there.
I appreciate all the comments. I feel both are good products. Just trying to get a pulse on the community.
Oh, I forgot the VE wide boards are right at $299 I believe.
WRP Boards
Don't know much about the Van Ams but did install the WRP Tuff Boards. Haven't ridden on em yet, but anticipate the wider foot bed will be a vast improvement, and they will definitely strengthen the tunnel. Air saw and air rivet tool are a must - go to Harbor Freight, you can get both for about $100.00. You'll save substantial coin if you do the install yourself and it only takes about 1.5 hours if you have the right tools.

I just installed the WRP wide board kit on my sled. While I don't have any snow time on them, I'm pretty confident I'm going to like them. The install was 1.5 hr. Make sure to have the right tools and it should be a breeze. I'm stoked to hit the snow with them. I'll report after a ride.
I'm leaning toward the WRP kit... What did you pay for them?
