Downhill boards, HELP!

Hey fellas.

Recently got into longboarding about 6 months ago now, ive been mostly free riding but as its come I've found an interest in downhill! Most of you might know about the up coming downhill comp in Noosa held by Good time crew and just keen on a smooth downhill/freeride board to help prepare abit.

I've mostly been looking in to, 3# Daddow 120y, 1#Fat pigeon Ausralian made boards and both 4#Bombsquad Flatsalt and 2# Earthwing Belly Racer. Probably my top 4. Be great for your advice and thoughts and definatly feel free to make a few sugestions!? Looking to pay around $200 (Deck) and my prefered dimensions would be 38' by 10' wouldnt mind W-concave and not really keen on semetrical.

Cheers Guys, much apprecitated!
