The BOARDWORLD Forums ran from 2009 to 2021 and are now closed and viewable here as an archive
Out of those, my pick would be the Rome Artifact Rocker.
Firstly, I think the 156 is a better jib board size for you (you already have a 159, get something noticeably shorter). Secondly, it is flat between the feet; exactly what you want in a rail board. This would be my pick, based on the fact you’re looking for a jib board and it’s your second board.
Hrmmm is there a big difference between the flat & the rocker for jibs?I would say i’m more leaning towards the arbor draft / capita horrorscope. Even though it shouldn’t, when boards are quite similar i always go with my favourite design.
Flat boards lock into rails better. That’s not to say you can’t jib like a boss with a full rocker.
You’ll love the Draft as well. I would just step down a size.
With either board, you win. Get whichever one you’re more stoked on.
personaly if i was going to get jib board i would go smaller in size.
my pow board is 155, the jib board i am getting it will be 152 or 153 and i am aroun 75- 80 kg 182cm
Yeaaaah i’m not too sure i wanna go that small (152 / 153) because keep in mind i’m 195cm tall & i have really long legs with quite a wide stance. I think i may demo a 155 of the arbor draft & see how i go.
what did u decide at the end ?
I’m gonna go out on a limb here, but my gut feelin is that he’s gonna demo the 155 Draft!!!!!
i found out i can get the arbor draft for $299 on the pro deal form for casi certified instructors so i’m definitely going to do that, i just needa decide on which size
