Burton Dominant vs. Forum Youngblood ? - Snowboarding Forum

06-18-2008, 02:21 PM

Hi,
I can't decide between getting a 2008 Burton Dominant or a 2008 Forum youngblood. I ride basically all park. Im 5'11'' and about 200lbs and size 12 boots, if that helps? I've been riding my stepchild hammerhead for like 3 years and its time for a change. So what are our guys thoughts on each board? Which would you go with?

Thanks,
-JOSH

youngblood. burton boards have like 2 stance options. fuck that. although if your stance width is workable on the dominant id get that. its wider and super poppy

Alright cool, thanks for you opinion.
Also what are your thoughts on the Rome Machine?
Because its a wide board and is designed for park.
Good - Bad?

Thanks,
JOSH

most definately the rome machine over both. i rode a machine my last day on snow this season and it was incredible. it doesnt feel like a flimsy jib board. also, rome makes some of the best snow product out there.
