alright well as the title states i'm looking into getting a new board because currently i have the 137 GB Wesbresco and its not performing the way i want it to. I am 6' 185 pounds if that helps anything

I rode my friends 143 o'brien (one of there higher end boards) and man that thing has soo much more pop and is so much faster. Also take off was wayyyy more controlled. I was kinda expecting all that because it was a larger board and fit my weight good.

I have also rode another friends 137 liquid force PS3 and i really enjoyed that board too.

I can land a backroll and a superman, and working on my tantrums. I really want a board that is on my level and is at a reasonably low price.

thanks

ive never heard of a gb board, but what you should do is look at similiar boards to the ones youve ridden or those sames models, at your weight id suggest a board around the 140-145cm range, but we may be able to narrow it down more if you can tell us wheteher you want a three stage/hybrid or continuous and if your looking for boat or cable/winch riding

I am not sure what type of rocker I want... my gator board is a continuous rocker, but I think I like a 3 stage better cause that's what the lf ps2 is and what the o'brien was. Also I do all of my riding behind a boat, prob wont ever do a cable lol
