Well im lookin for a concave board, thats composite/compression molded. I have norrowed it down to two. They are both the same price (atleast the 06's are) and so yea. What do you guys think of each board. I think I may go with omen because its wood but also composite, so I think it will feel better, but I haven't rode either and don't think I ever will till I buy one because none of my friends skate. So yea whats the ups and downs of each? _________________ 2 Hands Working Do More Than 1000 Hands Praying |

i did not like the omen because if i did not ride for a week or so i had to kinda relearn the board and also it is a very slow board, and i did not like the 5 stage. It had good pop but it was really weird. and it feels very flexy beacuse it is made that way to give it more pop.
I have not tried a integ but i hear good things.
I would go with the integ because of the 3 stage and prekicks _________________ l_o/------------------------<l |

provin1327, Two very different boards... either way you are gonna have one of the best boards out there hands down no matter your choice.
skatewake41, I would be curious to hear your opinion after you rode the deck with a sharper rail... its a night and day difference.
When it all comes down to it, it's personal preference. _________________ arson-wake.com |

| I'd go integ, the shape sticks to your feet really well, has really nice pop. just be sure and round off the edges and you'll love it. |

Like SleuCrew, said you can't go wrong either way. I've ridden both they both rock. I stuck with the omen, it's a diff. ride but when you get it, your ticks pop so big.  _________________ N-Pain |

[b]SleuCrew[/bi the first like 4 week i rode it with stock rails and it got cought on stuff way to much for my liking and was still slow and when i rounded the rails it rode a lot better but still keep all of the same pop. If you ride this board almost every day it would be the best board out there, but i cant ride every day so it just feels weire, _________________ l_o/------------------------<l |
