looking for a landboard/kiteboard....
limited selection in our local store....and only few models available on amazon.com...
wish I was in U.K.>>> looks like a ton of models to choose from
here I can get MBS colt 90
or MBS core 90MBS core 90
and maybe the MBS comp 90MBS comp 90// but that one is too much $$
what to get as our first kiteboard??
we are bigger boys 170-200lb
thanks

If I recall correctly you really don't want anything less than the MBS comp. The core is made more for children. If you get something like that it's
just not going to last and the money will be wasted. I'd definitely recommdn either looking for something used or just saving up.

Asked on a German forum. Everybody recommended channel trucks for 190lbs rider.
Typical models to start on Scrub Predator II, Kheo Bazik, or Next Blaze.
So I am going for one of those. But they are twice the price of the cheapest skate truck boards.

They may be twice the price but they'll never bend and are less prone to speed wobble. This is an expensive sport to begin but if you buy quality
gear it will last you a long time. I can still ride the same board I bought back in 2005.

When choosing the board.....should I look for stiff deck....or medium flex. ....there will be differences in quality of straps...and tracks....for for
heavier rider....assuming I should get stiffer board/deck??!!
Right/wrong?!
Thanks:o
