probs go for a landy 925 or a sayshun rogue...the rogue is nice and low (good for pushing) and its a drop mount deck with a 7 degree wedge at the front..its a shoter board at about 38 inches long and a great all round board with a tiny bit of flex

You have a decent drop through - time to expand your quiver. Try a top mount (fat pigeon or daddow) or a mirco drop board - everyone has suggested nice boards.

 

W-cave isn't everyone's cup of tea. I like it as it gives me extra leverage in slides and i know where my foot is when I tuck. Though its slightly weird to push and foot brake at times.

ok thanks im not sure about the w cave it sounds a bit weird to push but sounds pretty good when sliding.

lol vincent, a drop thru should be just as responsive, if not moreso than a drop deck depending on the size of the drop. sounds like what you're experiencing is a mental thing.

 

Jayden: your earthwing is awesome. you should be focused on becoming real comfortable on it before looking into a new board..

yeah, im pretty keen on keeping it as it is my fave board ive had.

Depends on the board w-cave is usually at the back though some boards have it all the way through (dw you get used to it). Very nice for sliding as you can push on the w-cave. Though for me the most important thing is a deeeepppp concave makes you feel better carving at speed.
Screw all you topmount nazis, i like a drop thru for free ride.

yeah cause i was surprised how deep the concave was when i got my earthwing supermodel. at first i didnt really no about it but when i started riding it, it was amazing.

what board do you have?

I have an earthwing belly racer (so same concave as yours) and an isis which has an even deeper concave as well as w. Looking at your sizes you're a bit big for an isis though I do know a guy at 190 probs a size 10 or > shoe who loved it (Also I'm a size 9 shoe). When I coleman I dont need to shift my foot over the heelside edge - my toes are against the deep concave, the w locks in the arch of my foot allowing me to have a smaller part of my heel over the edge very nice- though im sure anything with a deep concave would allow for this too.

yeah sounds pretty awesome

 

A round one?

 

 

 

Seriously though,For me Ily hellcat for freeriding and for dh foamie glyde dropdown..

Rayne Killswitch topmount.
