Which board?!

[George182]

I've been longboarding for a few months now, I got a lush mako in May and have ridden it pretty much every day. It's great for carving and a bit of cross stepping but I'd like to learn how to slide but still keep dancing.

I'm leaning towards a loaded board at the moment but which one?
I'm about 5'11 and about 65 kilos.

Any help would be really appreciated?

you'll get a lot of replies saying that loaded is a very pricey company, which is undenaibly true. however, the dervish is what ur looking for. The derv is an all around freeride deck that u can learn ur dancing on and can slide well with a nice set of wheels. Mine hasn't failed me yet.

the loaded dancer is way expensive, a bit clunky, and not exactly what ur lookin for. The vanguard would be ur next best choice below the dervish, but it has even less of a nose/tail than the dervish thereby making it even harder to perform manuals and related tricks. It's also a super flexy board, whereas the dervish's flex is a lil better suited to dancing and freeriding. If u like the derv go and get it!

I agree with that the Dervish is great for all of those, but if you're really into cross-stepping and the like get the Roggs Junior dancer. Good dancing board with a nose and tail, also good for sliding, and an acceptable DH board.
Plus! It's only $130.
