Ya, vangaurd is definately a nice carving board. If you want something a big longer for more comfort, you might wanna try the NS Eclipse(one of my favorite graphics ever).

Big wheels, Big cut outs, Turny trucks, soft bushings, and some nice flex

^^^ said it. However, the trucks and bushings are going to be the MOST important factor in this.

I have a flex 4 Vanguard (I weigh 145 pounds), with khiro barrels (blue on bottom, orange on top), and 83a speed vents. This set-up is SUPER carvy and pumpable.
