Default Fakie board recommendation

Great info guys.

I checked out the Prior website and their description for their AMF
(All Mountain Freestyle) board looks like it was written for me. They
have a really cheap used board w/ warranty that looks awfully
tempting. I could try that one and if I like it, buy a new one next
season.

I also fired an email off to Donek to see if they can still make the
twin-tip board that was mentioned above.

However there is one thing that bothers me about all of the replies I
got. What makes you think I'm not a kid? Is it that obvious? I like
to think that snowboarding keeps me young, but I guess its not helping
as much as I have hoped. Yes I am an adult, have two kids (snowboards
of course), and I think the only one that thinks I am still a kid is
my wife. However, when she says it, for some reason it doesn't sound
like a complement.

Thanks for you help.

Anybody out there that knows what I am looking for?


I'm a big Prior fan - I think you should look at their all-mountain
freestyle. A quote from the profile of the board: "Shape - The AMF's
subtle, directional shape and minimal stance setbacks provide an
uncompromising switch ride."

See
www.priorsnowboards.com for more info. Check under their
used/demo section - they have a half-dozen AMF boards available
ranging in price from $CDN 250 to $CDN 400 (US 180-290 at current
exchange).

The Donek Incline is also a great general purpose board, but probably
more directional/carvey than you're looking for.
