I enjoy most of the boards I ride a lot
but am always looking for a better one

I like three:

Thorn 07, Thorn 08, Flx 07.

The 07 thorn has so much pop, but is a little stiffer, and not as wide as the 08. The 08 width translates into better low end, still has great pop, but more flex, and a more comfortable ride.

The 07 flx, has a lot of the qualities I think the 08 Thorn has, but less low end, and it still has that irritating splash in your eyes. This the thorn has eliminated, and it actually works.

I'm not gonna say there is a lot of great boards out there, since there isn't...the only board that is any good is Thorn.

The Thorn is an awesome board too, just gotta replace those straps with some good ones.

something your not going to cry about when you lose it or break it.
