Im deciding between the ride machete 161W and the forum destroyer chillydog 158W,my stats are 6’3 190lbs, Im leaning towards the destroyer but Im not sure if it will be good for on the rest of the mountain outside of the park and im hoping to get just one board for all around the mountain, any help would be appreciated

Hi there,
what are you planning on riding most? If park, you could go with the slightly softer Destroyer Chillydog, for a bit more piste you might want to go with the Machete with a longer edge and more stability thanks to the slightly stiffer flex.

Still, both of the boards will be alright for park and piste, so just go with the one you like most!

Hope this helped, Cheers Tobi

thanks for the reply, yea I think I will be mostly riding piste and some park but I want a board thats playful enough for me to butter on easily and that is good for jumps and spins
