My vote is a K2 WWW that will be my next board too. Plus you wont be forking out as much cash as you would for a Burton.

i was thinking a technine or morrow board. Are those good for rails or halfpipes or are they in between?

Now yu may wanna wait for wolfie or someone else with more experience to chime in but from my little bit of experience Morrow and technine boards are not very well constructed. They are cheaper yes but they are for a reason. I would keep an eye out for a good deal cause it wont be long people will try to finish clearing out last years stock and often you can get a killer deal.

If you have a little extra money to spend on a high quality board, Never Summer and Smokin boards are pretty awesome. Both are 100% U.S.A high quality tech boards with awesome warranties. I think Never Summer particularly is a forum favorite here.

Basically you are asking us what are favorite brand is.

Mine is Lib Tech
