anyone tried the skate banana and/or rome graft rocker?

wondering which is the more progressive board, a board that allows you to learn different things and improve your riding skills on? i'm pretty new and plan on getting just one board.

i found more info on the sk8 banana since it's so popular. and read different opinions on it. can't find too much on the rome.

I have a skate banana. Great board to learn on. I'm more advanced, and it's still a really fun board. Great for powder and jibs, not so great for jumps. Magne traction really helps on ice, and RC is good for someone who is trying new things. Great board overall

I also have a SB and i love it. No buyer's remorse whatsoever.
I would demo it though before buying if you can. There are a lot of good reviews but there are the few who are negative.
