    apex 34/37 depending on your height. light and really fun. while i really like the m1 and scimitar, i find it really awkward to manual, shovit, etc. stepping over the trucks, risers, and hardware. flush-mount trucks feel so much more natural.

    definitely the 37 at your height. you can buy just the deck for pretty short money from original. and for what you're getting its definitely worth it. very strong, very light, right amount of flex.

    otherwise i would suggest the BC Eel. beautiful board, very lively and has the nose and tail you're looking for for tech tricks. priced right, but the only problem i see is its 42" IMHO a little long for a tech board. at 6' 2" i think you would want something around 38"

    if you're really on a budget check out eBay. always some really good deals on custom boards.

    Just little FYI, the Eel can be made to any length! We actually just sent out 2 - 37" Eels this morning. But at 6' 2" I would think you would want a little bigger platform as your feet are probably large and your stance is probably a bit wider than most.

    Yeah, you call it! Can't be over 48" and I wouldn't go smaller than 37". You will lose valuable foot space for a guy your size.
