Artifact '85, SubZero, Kink, Swindle. Those are my choices.

Academy propaganda or rhythm. Best board I've ever ridden, hands down. A company that truly knows hot to make a propper reverse camber, non of that multi stage nonsense every other company is trying

I tend not to stray far from the Capita lineup but I am looking forward to trying out the new Jibstick from Step Child. I think the RETT feature straight from the manufacturer is a great idea and time saver for jib kids.

what constitutes a 'top' jib board in your mind? shop sales? reviews (ugh)? paid for 'good wood' type things? do you think there are bad jib boards out there? what makes them bad? just curious.

^mainly durability and feel. It really comes down to personal preference. Durability can't really be debated all that much, but feel is all the individual. Whether you like a boards tortional give, the way it presses, if it has a sweet spot that locks, or whether you can just press it till it topples....
