You won't find any boards with the exact same nose and tail, and Almost boards are awful.

Just get a Alien Workshop, and be happy. Or Mystery. Aliens and Mysterys are nice.. I've also heard nice things about blank decks.

Chinese wood ftw.

Boardwise, if you want durability, and have no budget.. try a Girl deck. I personally like Chocolate. Their decks are sturdy, and keep the solid feel for a long time.

If you have a budget, definately go with blank, ATMs, or Mini-Logos.. you get the most bang for the buck. Strangely, I've gone through many ATM/Mini-Logos (I have a short budget).. some have lasted a year, and some lasted one session.

If it's element then no, it won't be a good board. Just check the freaking sticky, man!

I would get a blank those seem to be the best for a low budget if you want to get a really nice board read the STICKY it tells you all you need to know....and that basically sums it up

ew DO NOT GET ALMOST

reason: almost and enjoi are part of dwindle distrubution, which is a chinese company that makes boards. they are generally crap. i rode a used enjoi, it was comfy to me, and after 1 360 flip it cracked. so yeah it could have been me but still ive read a lot on them cuz i myself wanted an almost but i heard bad things bout em.
