2018 Burton Custom or 2018 Burton Trick Pony? 

Pros and Cons: Trick Pony has pure pop camber, but I’m worried about it not having as much edge hold as the Custom. Trick Pony is also less catchy which is nice. Trick Pony has same flex as Custom but the tails come up a bit, making buttering and pressing easier than the Custom. But these rise in tails make me think if I hit a mogul it’s going to throw me off balance since the front is like a plow. Trick Pony is more expensive and harder to find than Custom. Trick Pony gives you higher ollies. Trick Pony might be less stable at speed since it has a little rocker in it.

So what do I get? I can’t decide. Also if anyone finds good deals on either of these boards, please tell me. Thanks so much for the help!
