There is no way we can pick a board for you. Check out a site like http://www.boardstop.com and just browse around a little, look at the boards you like, and then go to the site of that board company. Most if not all of them have suggestions for what boards would suite you well.

but that doesn't mean you should get one. if you can, demo some boards from your local shop. and i you don't necessarily need an "advanced board". entry level boards are awesome to learn on and can help develope flippin sweet skills.

Ok so i'm kind of lost when trying to get the general idea of where you're currently at. You said you started this year, but you said you're progressing a lot. So could you give us an idea as to how far you've progressed thus far?

The last 4 times i I went out i did a new trick. I think learning a trick almost every time I go out is excelling.

All I'm asking is what whould be a better board when i start to do more advanced tricks.

I understand what you're asking, but it's really hard to tell what board if you're talking about getting one like, next year. And it depends what kinds of tricks you're doing and what kind you're wanting to learn. But there's also personal preference involved because of things like rocker type and other factors. There's just no magic way to punch your height and wight into a machine and get the results for what boards would be good for you. There are a lot of options out there.
