synthetic · 10-09-2010, 03:08 AM

i have a 159lib tech trs without banana that is stiff as a 2x4 so i want a park specific board that is short and soft. i am getting it from the boardroom and due to some jackass stealing my vonzippers last year i am on a tight budget so i can get new gogs as well.
i think its down to 2, im getting it from the boardroom in vancouver, cause thats where i will be tomorrow (today actually, its 1am)

forum manual for $279
boardroomshop.com - Skate, Snow, Wake, Surf :: Order Online or Call TollFree 1-800-316-7669

or is it worth the xtra for the ride kink at $309
boardroomshop.com - Skate, Snow, Wake, Surf :: Order Online or Call TollFree 1-800-316-7669

i will be getting a 153, the kink is not a really wide wide board, so its fine, i wear burton moto 10.5s from a few seasons ago.

any other suggestions from the boardroom that you see for under 300? or if you know another shop in the area that would have a board to fit my needs.

Thanks for the speedy replies

(please be night hawks and read this and respond so i can read the answer at 6am) (lol) (fat chance)

I'd go with the Kink. Any reason why you're limiting yourself to just the Boardroom? A few weeks ago, I saw an NS Circuit here locally at a BC Surf & Sport that was in your price range. They're still sitting on lots of Capita stuff in your range.

I have no idea what is available in your area, but honestly those prices kind of suck for the most part from a quick glance around that site.

Kink > Manual

Though you might wait and see how the Contract and Rat end up. They are full retail under $330 and may end up being super fun boards.
