Im a park rider who likes to hits up the whole mountain. I have been looking at these board because they are both camber and i like the stability of camber and seb toots kills it on the buck up and stale sandbech kills it on the MOD haha!

Which board would be best for me?

Cheers guys!

Yes.

Seriously you haven't given us enough info to tell you between the two. Also just cause a pro rides a board doesn't mean it's awesome. Not to mention half the time they're riding the graphic with different guts.

Ha! Well its mostly park, more kickers than rails. i also like just flat basing down groomed runs witch is why i like camber because i feel so stable on it. I ride pow now and then but i have a stiffer board thats better for pow so i guess the main ride for this board would be big kickers.

Hey DC

, If you happen to see someone fly over top of you @ Cypress & you see Dupraz written on the bottom of their board.

That's me, if you can ketchup, I'll let ya try it

Does anyone have any experience with the Ride Buck Up? or Ride in general? I know the Mod is very stiff so will be good for park and groomers but not good for rails.

Not necessarily. Its definitely not a "rail board" but you can still jib on the Mod. You won't be able to press and butter as well as the softer decks out there but it sounds like you want a board that can handle more aggressive all-mountain stuff anyways.

I'd place the Mod as more of "jump" board. It will be very stable for takeoffs and landings.

Thanks for the reply! Yeh i defiantly like the feel/grip of camber under my feet which is why im a bit unsure about the Buck Ups rocker tips. I wish there was somewhere i could try them both. Im not a huge jibber just rails every now and then, but mostly park.
