Default A camber-less Dervish?

Hey all, i'm riding on an old superglider right now. love it. but i want to get into some more freeriding, technical stuff. so i'm going to need a symmetrical board. now, i appreciate the dervish and understand why it's so great, but everytime i ride one i can't get myself used to the camber. when riding my superglider, i feel locked in, but when riding a dervish, i feel like it wants to buck me off.

are there any boards similar to a dervish, but without camber? i know of the FSM and KS scimitar, but other than that?

thanks

sounds like you are looking for a symmetrical drop through.

landy dropspeed
gravity kalai
fsm
scimitar
hellcat (not symmetrical but still a great deck)

non drop through
rayne nemesis
rayne demonseed
landy switch

actually you should check out the freeride/slopestyle thread and check out those decks.
