View Full Version : New Board
Poteten 06-22-2008, 01:57 PM Hi. Im going to buy a new board next week, so i was wondering what board i should take.
I am going to take a look at: Almost, Plan B, Girl, Enjoi.
Got any other good boards i can look at??
FS Jordan BS 06-22-2008, 02:32 PM i have an almost now, if i were you i wouldn't go for it. the pop is nothhing compared to my friends alien workshop. ive also had an enjoi and i thought the same about that as about my almost. so i wouldn't go for them.
i've heard great thngs about girl, and i know that i will be getting one as my next deck. i've also heard goos things about plan B.
hope this helps :)
Poteten 06-22-2008, 02:35 PM Ukay;) Yeah. well, i think i am going for almost^^
FS Jordan BS 06-22-2008, 02:37 PM yeah thats cool, dont get me wrong almosts are pretty good :)
but i just think im going to try other stuff.
go for it though :)
Michal 06-22-2008, 02:49 PM I ride Girl and hav nothing negative to say about them.
Go for Girl og atleast plan B
Ampx612 06-22-2008, 04:41 PM look at zero, amazing decks
Planb2276 06-22-2008, 04:49 PM DARK STAR ARMOR LIGHT!!! Gr8 pop and BEST CONCAVE IV EVER USED!!!
I've heard Girls are really good but i've never skated one, Almost and Enjoi are very similar. So yeah, id probably get a girl myself.
cheapBoarder 06-22-2008, 05:43 PM I do love Darkstar Armor lights and Mystery. I want to try a Expedition-One.
MysterySk8er3 06-22-2008, 05:47 PM Also look into Mystery and Foundation. Those are both great boards. I myself can't stand almost. I have skated two of them (friends board) and both of them just didn't feel right but it is all about personal feel so maybe you will like them.
cha-BANG 06-22-2008, 05:50 PM yeah, it's really more of personal preference. i'm on my 2nd consecutive almost impact chris haslam, and i like the board alot, but i'm goin for something new next time. i've had an enjoi, that was a good board, but, if i'm right, i dont think the pop lasted too long.
girl and chocolate are the same exact thing, and i've heard nothing but awesomeness out of both.
not much exp w/ plan B, so i can't help ya there
good luck bro!
libtech4life 06-22-2008, 06:12 PM Best decks in the business (in my opinion):
Girl/Chocolate
Foundation/Toy Machine
Zero/Mystery/$lave
Plan B
Popwar (if you can get your hands on one)
fluke 06-22-2008, 06:40 PM My brother has a Darkstar Armor Light. It's very light and flexes great, but it isn't as tough as my Habitat board which has resisted razor tail more than his and mine has been skated more than his. The concave on the Habitat is nice and mild (if you like that sort of thing).
ZOMBIE 06-23-2008, 03:30 AM out of those i'd go with girl. almosts suck imo
ForumSkater 06-23-2008, 01:36 PM Get an Almost but a Rodney Mullen model (NOT UBER LIGHT) because I got this and it's so freakin' light and it spins so well! I got this and now I can do back 180's every try because it turns so well. I landed my first double flip on this after an hour of skating this board. I love it, you should get an Almost. (BTW I got this on Go skate day :icon_peac)

Poteten 06-24-2008, 06:17 AM I do love Darkstar Armor lights and Mystery. I want to try a Expedition-One.
Expedition-One is a good deck but not so angry pop, my friend got it and he is not 100% happy for it, but i think its okay;) U shuld give it a shot
Shadowskater 06-24-2008, 06:51 AM I would go with a blank if I wear you. If you do pick a pro dek I would say Plan B out of those you said.
I ride Girl and hav nothing negative to say about them.
Go for Girl og atleast plan B
That made me laugh when I read that.
Poteten 06-24-2008, 08:03 AM Ohh okay, thanks for all the tip guys, im not sure who im gonna take yet. im going to a shop tomorrow, i think it gonna be Plan B,Almost,Girl and enjoy <-- 1 of thees.
bakerboy495 06-24-2008, 03:34 PM board wise deff go with a baker or a girl. i have had EVERY brand of boards except for atm and both of those are sick for almost everything.:icon_bigg
DJ Hankey 06-24-2008, 03:48 PM What ever you do dont buy a enjoi, i had one and the pop wears out to quick. But i have a girl board and it is just the best board i have ever used!
Poteten 06-25-2008, 03:39 PM Okay guys. i bought Almost :D Almost marnell or something^^
