A friend of mine in Eugene, OR asked me about what the best step up from a very entry-level 149cm morrow freestyle board would be for her. She's about 115lb, and can handle intermediate terrain fairly well, though she doesn't go terribly frequently, and isn't much of a daredevil or speed freak. I lent her my 156cm salomon freeride board last time we went up, and she liked the stability and speed it gave her, but I think she had a hard time flexing it.
I was basically going to point her to a late-model/used women's board in the 150-155cm range, probably from Burton, Ride, Palmer, or K2. Anyone have thoughts about particularly good ones, or something in that range lying around the house?
