Default Will i need a different board for kickers and sliders???

Do kickers and sliders really ruin your board. Will i need a slider/kicker board or will i be ok with just one???

Catlin they have been known to take big chunks out of boards, and even snap boards. If your serious about hitting them get a old board that you don't give a monkies about and use that, but keep your nice board for wake tricks, or till your confidant enough your not gonna ruin it on the sliders.

Better to spend a little on a crap board, than have to buy a new one

if you wanna hit sliders, get'em, don't worry about your board, don't let something as petty as scratching your board get in the way of having fun, which sliders are you hitting, who made them, are they good? There are some really dodgy sliders around so keep an eye out for anything looking sketchy. you gotta just go out and hit it, life's to short, and if your a chic that can do sliders, then you'll probably be fighting off the sponsors. The girls who ride in england suck, and I know of a few big companies who are looking for a girl that isn't scared to hit a silder or throw an invert. Then you've got yourself 3 boards for free every year, just for having the balls to slide your first deck. I really want a respectible girls section in the second film, so when you've got some inverts and rails down, call me and we'll get you a video part. This is your season, how hard you ride this year determins your direction in the sport, riding for fun is fun, but going upside down rocks. now go ride. peace
