I'm shopping for a good all-mountain board and would appreciate some input from you guys. A little background on myself:
- 5'8, 145 lbs, size 9 boots
- Currently riding a 2-year old GNU Factory Choice 154
- I consider myself an intermediate rider
- I'll mostly be riding the mountain but I want to hit some jumps here and there
So I'm looking for a good all-mountain freeride board with some freestyle capabilities. I'd like something stable at high speeds and versatile enough to ride on both hard pack and powder. I've narrowed my choices down to the Lib Tech Jamie Lynn Phoenix 154, Rome Anthem 154, Palmer Clutch 155, and Palmer Honeycircle 155.
I'm not the best rider in the world but I'm not too shabby. I'm wondering if all these boards might be a little advanced for for my skill set. I'd like a board that's good enough so that I can improve my skills but also one that isn't too unforgiving.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
