<description>Burton Flying V Snowboard&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;So..&#x3C;br /&#x3E;I might just be dumb but I was researching this board and it seems like Burton ripped off lib-tech. True/False? How are they different? Which one is better banana tech or flying v, magna-traction or EDG?</description>

<description>K2 WWW Rocker Snowboard&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Hey, I just picked up this board. I guess the guy that helped my pick it out was confused. He told me it would be fine for carving. I am fairly new to the sport and spend most of my time on downhill runs trying to get better at carving, and just better overall. Is this not the correct board for me? Any suggestions?</description>

I am 5&#x26;#39;9 about 145. I have been riding a 155 K2 and it feels too big. I am an intermediate park and freerider. I am debating between a 152 and a 148. Thanks for the help in advance.</description>

<description>Never Summer SL-R Snowboard&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;I&#x26;#39;m trying to decide between the NS SL-R, the NS Evo and one of the K2 Free Style Boards (either the Dream or Believer).  I&#x26;#39;m an intermediate boarding that is starting to get down black and bowls but I have a Burton Custom 08/09 for carving.  I want a freestyle board that can do park and carve as well as I start to learn how to start doing more trick riding.  Any suggestions?  Also...what size should I get (I&#x26;#39;m 5&#x26;#39;9&#x26;quot; and 160lbs) and any suggestions for bindings?</description>

<description>Ride Machete Snowboard&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Noob advice needed.  Just started last year.  This will be my first board.  Wanna get a great one and everyone says this is it.  Question is I weigh 172lbs and pretty proportional.  Should I go 158 for all around or would I be better of as a new boarder with a shorter one?</description>

<description>Lib Technologies TRS BTX Snowboard&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Hey Guys,&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;I think I&#x26;#39;m settled on the TRS BTX but am really up in the air between the 154 or the 157.  Any input you guys can give me would be much appreciated.  I&#x26;#39;m right in the middle weight wise (155 lbs) and have been riding a RIDE 156cm for the last 5 years or so.  So the question remains, 154 or 157???  I&#x26;#39;m not in the park much and prefer just cruising through the trees.  Any ideas?  Pros/Cons?  Will I even notice anything?</description>
