So, I got a bunch of money to get a new set up and I want something I can take to Washington Street. So I'm either getting one of two boards.

or

I'm going to get Indys on both.
I'll get OJs if I get the Grosso board, and Spits if I get the Mountain board.
Which would you rather have?

I know nothing about skateboards, so i wont taint ur poll, but from a purely aesthetics point of view, the lance mountain is dope.

flips are better imo

I've heard that they're better. I've only had P2 boards so I have no idea. But Lance Mountain is my favorite skater.
It's kind of annoying because my friends are saying the Mountain board might be a little harder to do grabs on.

you can't go wrong with flip. i've had a few of their boards before, and I find they go decently well. never tried black labels but, imo, go for flip ;)

i'd choose bones stf's over spitfires, slide real good and don't flatspot.

The Grosso is sick, but is more of a cruiser board. Id go with the Lance Mountain simply because it has a nose on it--versatility.

I don't skate STFs. SPFs are much better, in my opinion, but I like how spits slide over how Bones slide.
My problem with the Mountain board is the length. It's almost 33" where as the Grosso board is 30". I find smaller boards a lot easier to get air on.
What about an H-Street?!
