Let's not forget Richard Stilgoe!
She was half woman, half fish. Terrible in the kitchen, but a bloody good swimmer.

No Phil, I think he's saying that's his shortlist. I wouldn't try to read too much into a forum comment, it never works.

my top 6 funsticks:

Are you saying that you've actually ridden those boards or that you read the brochure? Just curious, as most people don't get to ride a range of boards and you can't really compare them unless you've ridden them...

I'm v tempted to pick one up to use in the domes over the summer. Not that I need one... I just love the idea of having multiple boards and love the stairmaster graphics...

suppose it depends on the individual's weight... I'd venture that at 14.5st I wouldn't find a 152 stairmaster stiff, but a skinny runt might.

I still can't believe people think the Stairmaster is stiff. It's a great jib stick that has a longer effective edge so rides 3/4cm longer than it is. This means it has a great swing weight for spins.

I don't know really, I rode a 156 Option Mendenhall in Canada last year, and it seemed tiny to me. I think you'd still be able to chuck it about.

What type of board is the riders choice then? Not a twin I presume?

Im 5,10 and bout 13st!! But i ride a GNU Riders Choice 157.5 and wanted something at the other end of the scale. Just think the 155 would be too similar and wouldnt notice that much differance?

Rather have the Scout than the Prospect mate and its a bit cheaper!! Just would like to hear from someone who has ridden one cos reviews iv found on tint say its stiffer than they expected.

So it all comes down to these 3

Scout 154
Graft 155
Artifact 153

By the time i decide they will all be gone!! (would get the Graft if only it was 153)
