Alright so i sold my dervish because i want something different. I am intermediate at long boarding and am just getting into sliding. Where i live you can only hit 25 tops and it is mostly flat. I am looking for something with good flex, pumpability and slidability. i am 5'10 145. I have been looking into the bustin sojourn (sp?) but i really dont know anything about this board. I am open to any suggestions and i can only pay 250 tops.

I've heard nothing but bad things about original trucks. I hear they break really easily and require a ton of maintenance. but I haven't actually ridden or owned them so u may have to look into it yourself
