Avatar

I am 184cm and 75kg and normally ride a 157, i am shit at jibbing but decent at everything else but don’t want to spend much cash on a jib board, is there any good cheap boards for getting better at rails next season? what size and model would you recommend?

Nitro swindle is about 600 and designed to be smashed against rails. Your height and weight a 155 should do the trick the nitro boards tend to have a wider stance so it should accommodate nicely.

All good jib boards, none are too expensive.

Depending on how much non-jib riding you also want to do, you can size around 150-155. 150 would be jib-only, 155 would be fairly versitile to ride the mountain, 152/153 probably your best bet for a jib board.

 

Capita Stairmaster - Great park board and generally cheaper then the competition.
