hey guys. im looking a deck that is durable (doesnt chip to fast and same with snapping) has mellow to medium concave, has good pop that doesnt die quickly, and has a pretty good shape (nose a little bigger maybe). i skate ledges, stairs, rails, flat (about 75% flat), and sometimes boxes. but dont think i need a tank or heavy duty deck lol cuz im not doing anything bigger than a 5 foot drop or a 9 stair (at most) these are the boards ive been thinking about: almost impact, a habitat, a blackbox (zero & mystery), or a dlx (anti-hero, krooked, & real) since they seem to be a favorite. it would be great if you can keep the choices to these please and to fit my description. PLEASE HURRY!!!!!!!!!! im getting it soon! and lastly say the actual board not blackbox or dlx. thanks guyss :)

dont get almost. get zero. its better than mystery, ive never tried slave though. aparently krooked, real, and anti-hero are really good as well though, so you probably couldnt go wrong getting one of those.

I've had a Real before it lasted me 2 months but lost it's pop around the 1 month and a half point. But the one I'm skating now is going strong and I've had it for a month. You could also get Girl mine lasted me about 3 months.

Dlx are definitely really good quality as everyone says, but just as good and rarely mentioned are santa cruz/creature.
All really hard to break and/or chip.

thanks for all the replys guys (that rhymed btw) so after all these answers ive summed it up to krooked or mystery (no one recommended mystery but in other threads ive heard they are amazing). has anyone had any of these/feedback?

Mystery has some really devoted fanboys, but I've never known them to be considered great by unbiased people.
I haven't had one myself so I don't know, I do know most of their decks seem to be narrow (7.5 to 7.75) which makes me feel bad about the brand, like they're targetted at noobs.

lol :) my favorite size is 7.75 anyways (i have a size 9 foot and its just the best for me) although i can deal with a little higher
