ESW v. LG

hey

i've been debating whether to save up for the earthwing super model or the legendary mini gnome. the super model is much longer, but i heard it's a great board for cruising and downhill. the gnome is just an epic looking board and it has a cool shape too.

my current problem is that my looking glass is super stiff. when you jump on it, it's like jumping on concrete. i'm a tiny dude and it's killing my ankles and stuff riding on bad pavement with my looking glass. i really hope the gnome is flexy. that would totally sell me on buying that. however, i haven't found any legit info saying that it's flexy enough for me being 80 lbs.



i've only read good things about the super model. it's supposedly a sick downhill board and can be great at cruising and pumping. cross stepping at the moment is hard on a 34 inch board, and i'm also hoping that a longer deck will improve my robotic cross-stepping.



hopefully i can earn the cash and then i'll really get down into the deciding stages.

wish me luck!
