Rome Artifact, Burton Hate, or Stepchild Everything Sucks?
I'm really stuck on picking a board. I stick to the park most of the day, except for when I'm on a mountain that is actually worthy of riding, but i have my burton blunt for that. help?

this board is fun for like the first 30 days. it had great pop and fun on rails but then it went downhill. my topsheet peeled back, sidewall is disappearing and i can see core. also it lost all its pop and literally i can only ollie as high as i can lift my knees. for $370,even now at $300, you can get a better board. but if you can wait til it goes down to around $200 then it would be a good deal. espesh since you have another board so you wont ride it everyday. its an amazing board up to the point when it wears out. i loved it until now. hope that helps a little. the everything sucks will be a bit stiffer but more durable
