rhskates27, between those two boards I would recommend the 08 hampson simply based on the fact that they seemed to have their stuff together as far as construction goes. While not every walton from 07 fell a part, a lot of people seemed to have issues with the durability of that board. For 08, those boards felt a lot more solid and I've not heard of many of those boards falling a part.
Do you have questions about any other companies or boards? If you're curious, you should ask--someone here will help you out.

| The Oak Horan is a good skate. You cant go wrong with either an Oak or a Sattelyte. |
