i want a new board because i want one.
thats why you should get something different to what you got, a grom race is similar to what you ride, you need to get a drop thru or top mount so you got some scope to your quiver, no point in having 2 stif lowered boards

from landy i might add
careful nip, sooner or later sean is gonna start hating on you cause you got too much good gear and dont do DH!!

im pretty sure someone in oz has a grom race, hop shop sold one a few months back. of course the safest choice you could go with is get a hellcat :)

the grom race is in no way similar to the switch, sure its dropped, but then you could say all topmounts are similar then, if he like the feeling of dropped decks then he should get the grom race, its different from the switch with its concave, wb, width, wedging. its more suited for someone his size. once again nip, a warning not to take advice (especially dh advice) from sean and this situation clearly illustrates why.
i hate on stephen cos i dont like him, i just use that as an excuse

gilbert, i am just speaking from personal experience having owned a dropped, extra lowered drop through, 2 lowered decks, and 2 top mounts, i am advising him to try some different mounts just because that way he will learn what he likes, if i was him i would be going for a dropthrough cos he can experiment with what he likes, either that or just buy a top mount because for melbourne i think the extra leverage you can get over the trucks is a nice thing for 99% of the hills we have (hence me only riding my evo up at falls road, cumberland and sheoke) its just a personal thing though, if you want another lowered board, cool man go for it, i would just get something else in your situation for the depth adding to a quiver

thoughts on flush mounted boards. pros and cons.
good half way between top and drop mounts, only ridden one with sidewinders on it and it seems to be a cool idea

whad up?

Hey everyone, excuse the typing, running at the uni has screwed me over,

I need some help in deciding what board I should get I have narrowed my choices down to a nemmy or demonseed, I was looking at the isis but changed my mind as its a bit thin. I'm 6'1", 90kgs with size 14 feet.. so im looking for a board i can throw around and still do some decent bombin, any ideas?

thanks
Alex
