Fakie board recommendation
I am looking for some board recommendations. I know I should rent and
try a bunch of boards before I buy, but I don't get to ride nearly enough, and I don't want to spend half the season messing around with differnet boards. Not to mention, it sounds like a hassle to try to track down the board you want to try, in the correct size and everything, go rent it, get it set up, ride, and then return it. Maby I'm just lazy. I consider myself an intermediate to advanced rider. I usually ride fakie for at least half the day and therefore don't want a directional board. The catch, however, is that I spend more time out of the park than in it (I usually play in the park for only 1-2 hours in a full day of riding). So, I don't want a board that would be made for freestyle riding (as most non-directional boards are). I live on the East coast, so deep powder runs are rare, mostly packed powder (if you can call it that), and ice. I am 6' and weigh around 170 lbs. I would like to find something under $400 and have no problem buying last year's model. Anybody out there that knows what I am looking for? |
