Get a used burton or rossignol, if you want a new board get a cheap forum or k2 from last year.

my rossignol imperial cost me $300 with bindings an boots (also rossignol) an it's a great learner's board, good pop, flex, good all round board so i would recommend that

Dont get too cheap of a board or it will ruin your skating experience

We still got skateboarders in here. Last yr burton boards are pretty well priced too. U cant go wrong with burton.

a used board is probably smart. like a 155- 159 if you wanna do park.lib tech kills. if you want to spend alot but get a killer board get a burton 07-08 dominant/slick. they destroy in the park. a burton se7en is just as good but a little more well rounded. if you want something new but inexpensive go to big five sports (if they have those in canada) and get a 51/50 DLR. they seem alright.

what the hell? forum boards are NOT cheap. they're really nice though. that'd be a good choice. burton )8 custom bindings will compliment anything nicely. i swear by them.
