Beginner looking for groomers and natural jumps
Want to keep under $300
Loaner board was Flag 168 and too stiff for me as beginner.

Have down to Rome Slash (wide Agent version) or Ride Antic?

Thanks,

I'm riding a flag and it definitely is stiff! I'm loving it, but if I were going to buy an all mountain board, it would definitely be the slash (I may buy it next year to start hitting jumps better, and to better my switch riding skills). I've heard good things about the agent, and I think Rome stuff is top notch quality.
The slash will definitely have more flex. Check out Rome's website, they have a great breakdown of their board tech and it should help you decide which one suits you.

Edit: here is a thread where some people are giving good reviews to the agent http://www.snowboardingforum.com/equipment-reviews/14020-anyone-09-rome-agent.html
