this decision is entirely based on what you want in your board. Do you like a drop deck? or a drop through. Do you want pleasure dome or not?

personally i would get a hellcat. I had a demonseed at one point and it was wayy to long.

what do you ride now

i've ridden both and i would recommend you getting a drop deck like the demonseed or nemesis (shorter demonseed) if you're new to dh. that's just the way it went for me cause it felt more stable on a lower board...obviously. but if you have other disciplines that you wanna tackle then i suggest you get the hellcat because it's very versatile and can do pretty much anything...i even throw some cross steps down every once and a while.
