i dont get the whole "size" thing. i weigh 110 and im super skinny and i ride an engen. i guess if your to big 4 a board it matters, but for me size is not a factor.

PIRATE , yea i love the success, but i think i want a bigger board next year, are they the same shapes but different graphics or are you guys changing the shapes. cus the heartbreaker was 41 i believe but still same shape from 2006?

Oak is baller and secretly I wish that I was as cool as Mikey.T.

Personally, I would just wait a week until surf expo. Photos of 2008 stuff will appear online, and you can pick from there. I am pretty sure that Oak has a booth again this year.

I own a Success, and love it, I also just rode my bro's team machine, and also love it. It is not quite as heavy as the success, and spins a bit different, but they are both awesome boards. I might buy an Oak next....

oak is the best board i have ever ridden
not only are the boards sick, but so are the riders, and the people who own the company
sick board + sick riders+ sick owners = im stoaked

Both companies are sick, with nice wooden boards that are durable like tanks, great teams with up and coming riders on the cutting edge, and Cool owners that really have their hearts in the right place.

PIRATE, Did the shape on the 40 change at all? Or just graphics?

PIRATE · Kickflip Joined: 11 Jul 2006 Posts: 2651

Beaver, i'm pretty sure that there is 2 40's this year..... so yes there different shapes... more concave and higher kicks.
