if you are going to do alot of street skating go with the girl,which is a old style street deck.the powell is also a good deck but the concave and shape make it hard to flip .

get something from 5 Points if possible. I've ordered from them before, and their boards are great. If you want an old school street board, I'd go with the Curb Dog. If you ride ditch, Ditch Digger. Here's their site:

My friend Steve skates the 90's Taper deck. I HIGHLY recommend that, it can handle anything, street, vert, park, bowl, ditch, hell, even a little freestyle!

ever watched the second episode of futurama? "noone knows when man first landed on the moon, but we recon it looked something like this" "we landed on the moon. we came with our harpoons". those decsk remind me of that. if you were around in the 70's or 80's, you know for fact boards were never that shape.
thus, they both suck. fake old skool boards? damn.. but if you're not trying to relive the 70's (which some of us are, so what?) I'd say get the Powell. cold glue press in California as opposed to making a million/minute in china like girl do with warm glue (shit).

I just want something to cruise in once I get my zip zagger set up. Maybe something for a friend to ride around if they come over or something.
