It's a good thread, I wouldn't want to start a new one so could someone offer me similar advise.
I am just over 6 ft 12 1/2 Stone and a relative beginner, any recommendations?
Also some good n00bie board tips would be good as I really want to get my first board.
I will be using it mostly for park stuff as my main riding outlet comes in the form of the snowdome these days.
Don't get a chance to it the hill much |
