What's should i get?

Loaded Vanguard
Loaded Dervish
Original Apex 37

Any other boards i should be considering? I like to cruise, sometimes carve. Slides here and there. Bombing is not my favorite, but i still do it sometimes.

Dervish for me seems the best of all 3. Any opinion?

Hey, me and my friends make longboards and we have a board that is very comparable to the dervish. Just without that huge of a price tag. Check out our thread and get back to me if your interested!

i do about the same stuff as you and i like my dervish quite a bit.
i dont do many hills, so my set up is pretty loose, which gets a little sketch on hills and stuff, but its a super fun board for just carving arond and stuff

If you are doing lots of cruising and not too much downhill, you likely are looking for a board with at least a medium flex too it. The dervish would be a good option if you can afford it. The KrackedSkulls M1 would be another good choice (i have it for a similar style and love it, its also fairly easy on the wallet), and the landyatchz bamboo dropcarve (dropthrough decks are epic, so is bamboo!)

i have a vanguard... its super sick i absolutely love it. i wanted a dervish but the vanguard was cheaper, after riding mine, and my friends' dervish they feel almost exactly the same.
