    Default Which is the better Carver? Dervish or Gravity Dropcarve (Kalai)

    Ive researched the post about the kalai and most say they are stiffer board but i also hear that it can be used to carve. Im pretty bored of my dervish so I am thinking of selling it to get a kalai but Im worried about it's stiffness would make it a bad carver, what do you guys think.

    ps. heres some threads abut the kalai

    this is a bad question to ask. it's all preference so no one can tell you what YOU like. the Kalai has different flex options as well, so take that into account. and Loaded kinda has a "signature" feel in their flex, real springy and bouncy. so if you like that then stick with loaded. if no then grab the kalai, or just try and experiment. the worst thing that could happen is that you have a board that is really fun, but not a loaded.

    regardless of the deck, you will have fun.
