    Speedboard - If you've got the hills.

    Maybe a dedicated slider, or a slalom board.

    well I guess it's a 'If you feel like it' thing then.

    personally, this is a quiver.

    Speedboard
    Slider
    Hybrid slalom
    Carver

    Utterly a matter of taste of course, some people have 5 speedboards.

    Yeah, you've definately got the hills..

    So you posted a pretty wide variety of choices..
    What kind of board are you looking to get next?
    If your wanting a board that will help you accelerate your DH ability, definately consider the Evo. You could even come into ER and try out my evo if you wanted..

    All kinds of different boards you could start adding on and trying to build a quiver.
    You'll definately probably eventually want to add on a speedboard, then the rest are kind of dependant on what kind of riding you do.. whether or not you'll want to add a dancer/slider/mini/etc.
    I need a new idea for a sig.

    Your question is way to general. This is like asking "what kind of car should I get" without knowing what you need a car for.

    Your height and weight?
    Price range?
    Expected use?
    34" Pickle by Koastal skateboards- Park, pool, ditches, pedestrian slalom
    44" Handmade custom carver- Hills, thrills, (hopefully not too many) spills
    55" Handmade custom dancer- Making the elderly ladies swoon

    a pintail should be great for cruising/dancing, you should really invest in a different style of riding!

    Get "The Big Easy" from Louisiana Longboards, same thing as a LBL Dancer, only cooler because not many people have The Big Easy.

    Nice, that should work out - I have no plans or anything yet this week, just let me know what day, and we'll hope the weather holds out, supposed to be nice all weekend actually.
    I don't have leathers or anything either, no liabilities or nothing lol.
