If you want to do more w2w stuff or are tall and/or heavy then you should get a bigger board. If you want to do more skate style stuff then you should get a smaller board. Oh yea, check out my sig. . . _________________ I like to choke when my team needs me the most, no Romo. |

nottoldyet, what's up old timer. If you're comparing the o5 Byerly and the catalyst, I'd say go with the Byerly. I've seen the 06 catalyst and it looks a lot like the o5 byerly as far as being heavier with more blunted edges. Good luck bro, stay off the strapps homey.  _________________ dbanana wrote:

nottoldyet, good for you
You should try riding a wood board, you'll see how different it is. Mainly because of the rounder edges, which you can have on any Integrity cause you can sand their rails to your liking. The height of your ride depends a lot on the edge shape. it affects many other things too.
I always found HL decks to sit way too high in the water because of their sharp rails.
regarding board size it really comes down to preference but you will probably want one of those 3 sizes: 41, 42 or 43.
hope it helps
if you can hold on for a few weeks you'll have a new player in the market, Omen. And their decks look sooo promising.. _________________
