fibretec stuff is very well made. better quality than other 'high end' brands. Ive had a few fibretec boards in the past. All very light, very strong. worth the cash.

It can't compare to any board due to it's unique shape and construction. It is what it is - rad fun

Ahhh well the problem is that I asking as advice for a gift. My girlfriend likes a board with a very snappy, responsive flex. I'm sure shey'd like either board so I'm gonna go with the timeline cause of the mad graphic - I will camp my computer to snap one up when stock comes in. Thanks for the advice

Don't hold ur breath. Rayne stock is hard to come by. Crocco has a better graphic anyway. Plus is comes in 3 different sizes so u have more options to suit the style. Fibertec wins over Rayne any day both in construction, looks, diversity and soul

Arghh you guys making me rethink my decision. Hop said the timeline has a better concave making it easier to slide (something I hope to teach her soon). Well in the end even if I do get her the timeline that just means I can have a Croco/Fat n Flat for myself ahahaha. Also 3 sizes I thought the Croco only comes in 2?

A timeline is not a board to learn to slide on...

The board is mainly for her to cruise and carve on which I'm sure the timeline is mad for. But I don't see a reason why she can't learn on it - probably not the best board to do it on but it will do. Anyways I think with its 1 inch camber the Croco would be an even less desirable deck to learn on- well at least in my experience of sliding on decks with large cambers...

I have a t
imeline and it is amazing for carving and cruising but sliding not so much.
The style of sliding you would learn on a timeline would be so different from the motion you want to do on bigger boards that it wouldn't help.
Like my brother learned on an apex 37 and said trying to slide his switch was like learning all over again because instead of just leaning so far the wheels lost traction he actually had to push the wheels out.
The timeline is the same; i love mine but sliding on it is completely different to sliding on my Killswitch for example. And the only type of slides i can confidently do on a timeline are mini heelsides; it is completely assymetrical; even the camber and concave differ from front to back.
