Can somebody tell me which board would be the best choice for a jib rocker/reverse camber board thats fairly easy to press but doesnt let down on jumps. Im looking at the k2 parkstar, the gnu carbon credit and the sub zero

the sub zero is very soft, depending on the size of the jump and your skill it should handle them decent but but the k2 or gnu will handle them better, and the k2 should be a bit softer than the gnu

A shopkeeper recommended the Sub Zero for pure park and urban riding. It's a bit softer than the Parkstar but basically I it think it's all down to personal taste. Gnu, Nitro and K2 all make excellent boards, the magnet traction and bana tech on the Gnu has however gotten tons of praise. Choose the one you think looks the best; a good looking board gives you confidence which is far superior to the tech difference of the three. I personally would go with the K2 since I have a history with them or the Gnu because of the magnet traction.
