i ride a 150 artifact now and its pretty beat up now and im gnna need a board for next year and i was thinkin about getting the swindle. I dont know if i shoudl go down to a 148 or 152. I was thinkin more 148 because im more into rails but still not sure how this board rides. Any suggestions?

I would almost have to dissagree. depending on your age most likly, if you think you gonna gain a couple of pounds, then maybe going down isent a good think, just from my exspeance, i out grew my 148 and went to a 152 like it was nothing, just my 10 cents, hope it helps

I'd go with the 148 if you like a really soft board because this is a little stiffer then the artifact so the 148 would have around the same flex as a 150 artifact...... hoped that helped
