Paranormal · 11-15-2010, 11:33 AM

sup guys new here. Id say im a intermediate rider. i purchased TWO boards for christmas this year with the intent to give one to my brother. I gave him the choice in the two boards between a K2 SLAYBLADE or RIDE MACHETE. ive only rode a burton custom so i have no experience on either board. i guess i was looking for a good solid all rounder. both are 158's and all the reviews seem decent on the two.

where these good choices? and which one should i hope my brother dosnt chose

ps. i grabbed some rome 390's for the bindings

I heard good things about both. I when I was going to buy a board the Slayblade was on my list. I guess it also comes down to if you want to ride a flat board or a board with rocker.
