Atomic Punx. Can't go wrong which them. Softer flex, which is good for rails, but you will be able to take bog jumps with them. Great pop, and low swing weight.

Armada el rey.
171 if your not growing anymore or shootin for super spinny tricks. Maybe consider 178 if your still growing or not going for spins over 720s.
El rey might be a little stiff especially at first, but its price is nice at O2 gearshop at 262 before tax and shipping. Probably around 280-300.
And its a Armada so it last a few seasons for sure.
