Libtech is great if your riding park not so much fitting his needs.

thanks,
As for burton i was looking at a Custom X, Flying V and maybe a T6, though the T6 might be overkill.

i currently ride a burton custom, but honest banna tech (aka reverse camber) is the way to go on any board. all board makers are producing reverse camber boards this year because the are simply better then the old design. the rip powder better, jib better, and are more fun to ride. i would go with a libtech Trice or a burton custom though. u dont really ned a custom x or t6.

Burtons are pretty nice I have a Burton dom for the park.

My personal favorite board is my Option chris dufficy pro model <3 boards so sick

But best thing would be to go to your local shop and take a look around .

But that ride yukon def worth looking at if you can find one.

Thanks for all the help :)
gonna check out a few boards next weekend if i have time :)

edit: one question,
The reverse camber, i get the idea, but how do these hold out on ice?
Wouldnt you lose the grip and edge support?

not at all, esp the lib techs because they have a wavy sidecut. they are the best ice board around. its caled magne traction if u want to look it up. some other manufactors use this concept now too.

I've been snowboarding for three years now. I loved it so much I bought a Ride Control snowboard after the first year. :D

I've used it only like four times so far but I love it. It's very stable and I have no problems. Also when buying it, I learned about how every snowboard has a metal ring around it's edge but how Ride makes their metal ring out of the rubber used in skateboard tires. That way if you hit a rock or something, it wont break like it would on other boards, giving you a longer time with it. It's also extremely cheap
Reviews also say a lot of good things about it too, and they know what theyre talking about more than I do
