hi all,

this is my first post in this awesome forum.
i'll just give a quick background,before i type my "important" question.

i'm 6'1 217 lbs. i have a ride wildlife 163 wide board with mission reflex bindings.thats my all around board(woods,moguls,etc)
i also have an arbor a-frame 162 with cartels.i use her for straightline speed and carving runs..she's awesome.

now,the big question..i love riding moguls,but the arbor is too stiff and the wildlife is pretty good,but i want something with a little more control and possibly shorter.is a freestyle board the way too go?

i'd love to hear some ideas.

cheers

Thanks snowolf,

What do you think about the burton barracuda,i know its not a park board,but my local shop recommended it. do you think that the pin-tail could have a positive or negative effect?

also,i kinda prefer the flat/rocker setup over the camber(moguls),do you think that the profile factors in that much?
