I have the option to buy a potentially really nice board and need advice. Someone is selling a lightly used 158W Capita DOA with union force bindings (are these good bindings?) burton mittens, and a burton bag. I offered them $250 for it and am awaiting negotiations (I’ll probably end up agreeing to $300) I am 5’11, 170 LBs, and have an 11 shoe size. I have been boarding 3 times in my life (all last season) and plan on going A LOT in the future (I live in N.C. but will be taking trips out west for powder.) I want a board that’s just, simply good at everything. I plan on doing generic carving and progressing to some more park work as I get more skilled (I’m definitely getting better) is this a good all around board where I can control myself in carving and also at high speeds? I also want it to be good for jumps and park work. The board looks to be in very good shape (He said it was only taken out 5 times) Ps. He has the board set up so the right foot is the front foot, I am a left-front rider. Can I take them out and mess with them to make myself comfortable? Also, what do I need to look for when inspecting this to make sure it's in good shape. Update: he just said he’d do 300 but he’s throwing in a pair of size 11 thirty two doublea boots, bubble snowboard anti fog glasses, and billabong pants and a coat too. So more loot than I expected (I could keep the boots or sell them and buy new, not sure what to do)
