Hi
I need some advice on the Ride Rapture. I am riding a 2007 Rossignol Reserve 139 for the past 2 yrs and i have struggled to turn the board without jumping..This is frustrating since i am athletic and have taken many lessons..My 8 yr old is light years better than me lol..

I am:
5'1", weigh 110

The Ride Rapture 143 was recommended by the local boardshop. Basically the guy said i need a rocker board.. The reviews say this is an good one for beginners but will get squirrly at speed and carving..

Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks!
