Gravity Mini-Carve. 42"

I recommend a landyachtz drop carve or a loaded dervish, both are low, making it alot easier to push, and are more stable on hills. both are very versatile. thats my 2 cents

Kracked skulls scimitar, you'll have to email them to get it b/c it's not listed on his website but for the price it really can't be beat (under 150 for a complete). It's low to the ground, flexy, and a great carver.

Fibreflex Pintail... A seriously great board, got some serious flex. My favorite board, i dance, carve and slide on it. LOTS of fibreglass on it, making it quite light, plus making it very durable.

Gravity minicarve as well.... or a bustin boards complex or cigar.

I am personally eyeing that dervish quite closely. Also consider Earthwing's offerings...

loaded dervish or the vanguard.

I don't know if you have held an all fibreglass board, but they are MUCH heavier than a solid baltic birch board, or bamboo. More fibreglass = heavier board.

As for the board, I think a good choice would be a Landyachtz Drop Wedge. Great for dodging pedestrians and it's still low to the ground, making it easy to push.

NS Norad. next question.

If you're looking for a comfortable board to cruise, carve, and even ride moderate hills on I agree with the guy that said Bustin Complex. I have had one for a while now and it's a pretty amazing board all around. Good amount of flex, not to heavy and has amazing concave and shape to keep your feet in the right place. I ordered mine with the M1 trucks and the 3DM wheels and it's great.

That's my 2 cents.

I've got to second the fibreflex pintail, as recommended above. For a guy your size, the flex will be ideal.
