Default Is this any good

I am looking at getting a new board and have seen a Jobe DVNT 140 on Ebay!

Has any one used one? Is it any good?

I've been riding for about 2 years and am looking for a board to progress with! I currently ride a O'brien Custom but I find it does not have very good edge hold! I was also looking for a board that could help get me more height on my jumps!

looking at the spec of the board he has on the ebay ad it should give more pop with a 3 stage like that. mines got a 2.6" rocker and that gives loads of 'pop'.

but when i looked up the board on google i only found info that the board had a 2.3 to 2.4" rocker which isn't really the same as 2.8" like it says in the ad.

so you might want to ask the guy some questions b4 u bid 8O

but then im not expert on jobe boards so some one else might know different
