what to look for in a new board...?

[girlboardr]

so i've had my hyperlite 137 fluid for a few years now, and it's been a great board for me. but it's kind of a beginner board and since my skills have improved since the ti,e that i bought it, i'm thinkin its time to move on... I was just wantin some advice on what sorts of things I should be lookin for. I can do w2w and a few other tricks, but i do still have a lot to learn. so if anyone has some good sugestions of what to look for or any particular models would be good for me to try i'd love to hear from you. thanx.

best thing to do is to demo a few to get an idea of what kind of board fits best with your style. The size makes a difference and the type, 3-stage or continuous, will affect your riding also. If you don't want to spend the $$ for a new board, see if you can find the '03 Belmont. That is a great board and very user friendly. It can grow with you from beginner to any level. You should be able to find one for under $200.

agree with MissJade on all that... as always, the best advice is to demo. but if you're wanting to stick with HL... the Belmont is probably a great next step. If you're looking for a little more of a 3stage than continuous rocker, then the Premier is also probably a good option.
