DONT DO IT! the artifact is a great board but the DH is alot better and well rounded. an artifact is just for rails, a dh can be used everywhere. this guy knows this and is trying to pull one over on you.

But the board is a 157 im 5'8 and 145 pounds do you think its to big for me to ride...i ride mostly park and messaround through the runs...?? still dont do it??

Are you a near-constant jibber? If not, stay with the DH.

How much do you weigh?

Dude just metal up and ride the 157 DH.

Yes. I'm 165 and spent most of last season jibbing on a 163 wide.

if i was in your situation i would go for the artifact, just because i rode my friends 155 dh(i weigh 150) and thought it was waaaay to stiff, but all i ride is park. so if you do more jumps than rails stick with the dh.

My DH still kills rails and boxes. The more you ride it and goof off with it, the more flexy it gets.
