Answer 1

Some good jib boards you should check out are

Rome Artifact

Ride Kink

Apo Selecta

Forum Manuel

Atomic Pivot

Bataleon evil Twin

Salomon Sanchez

Capita Stairmaster

All the boards ive listed ive either owned, demoed or heard good things about. Im currently riding a Rome Artifact and its the most flexaxble board ive ever ridden you can go wrong with one of those. Good luck with the riding.

Answer 2

K2 WWW

Rome Artifact

Ride Kink

I've heard mixed opinions about the Stairmaster.  I would say the WWW is a good choice.  Everybody seems to love theirs and they don't seem to have any complaints.  This year's graphix are pretty dope too.

Answer 3

The ride kink or The Burton dominant or Dominant Slick. They all have a nice soft flex. If your looking for a serious jib - only board.. The dominant slick is probably a good choice as its got no edges so you wont get caught on those rails.

Answer 4

rome artifact - more flex in nose and tail

technine jib - never ridden it but got 08 good wood "im takin this thing to the streets" aka good for rails

K2 www - flex all around

all about the same price range, each has there own little feel to them

ya jibbing is so fun, especially on random stuff u find

tail blocks are mad fun but are pretty harsh on the board (but i still do em all the time), flat land tricks in general are mad fun espcailly when you can actually flec the board

Answer 5

It doesnt really matter wat brand just go for a 200+ board. And try it in the store to see its flex. Also ask the store guy about the materials. A wood core is the most flex

Answer 6

Rome Agent if you dont like burton but the Burton Dominant has crazy flex and i think its better than the rome agent

Answer 7

Get an all round board freestyle unless you plan to limit yourself to just grinds and jumps.  That pretty boring if you ask me.  Plus when the park gets crowded I leave and do powder runs.  Get what you want to but thats my opition.

I think those kids that can do tricks but can't actually ride a board are losers.  Not saying you are but that my opinion.  Some of the most fun I've had was racing my brother though the glades.

Plus I could grind with any board so getting one for that reason doesn't make sense.

Answer 8

I am currently riding a K2 World Wide Weapon 148 which is a really sick jibbing board its pretty small so i would get a little bigger size. If I were you I would look into that board. Some other good choices are Ride DH 151, Ride Kink, Rome artifacts are very nice. I was also looking at the captia stairmaster for next year seems to be pretty good so i would check that board out. If you want a good burton jibbing board go with the dominant. PS by your board in the spring you can get up to 50% off.
