I am new to this sport, I rode my cousins skate and it sparked my interest. I was wondering what is the best board for me.
Height: 6'3''
Weight: 215
Shoe Size: 13
I am looking for a board that I can progress on. I have read around and see that Omen, Integrity and Oak are the most commonly talked about boards. I was wondering if these will work for a guy my size. I also noticed that liquid force offers and 43" WIDE board.
What do you think is optimal for my situation? |

hey thanks for your input, we have a 2002 Supra.
Will the omen revolt last me a long time compared to the Liquid force Impulse? I found the Impulse for $150 where as I see the Omen is 280. |

o yea, it is not wood on the outside so it will not waterlog or anything that a wood board does. It will just ride the same always. _________________ l_o/------------------------<l |
