Sorry guys for the ultra noobish question but what would some of the best boards for a complete beginner to get? I want to ride like 70% freestyle and 30 percent freeride.

That's an epic question.

I can tell you the boards I WISH I would have had as a complete beginner.

Capita Indoor Survival
Bataleon Whatever
Burton Joystick/Hero
Yes Basic.

Someone else had a thread for this.

Burton Flying V
Never summer Proto Ct
Yes basic
Ride machete
Maybe not the machete, but it would be great if you are a quick learner.

I rented several different types then settled on the Burton Joystick (rocker). Best decision I could have made and have been completely satisfied.

Good luck -
