thx vm guys for all the info. I was looking for a more forgiving board b/c sometimes I would ride in different terrain like moguls, non-groomed bumpy trails or powder in some off trail runs, and I did not enjoy as much riding my SL and GS board. Then I was wondering if I could simply use my plate setup on my Burton custom, but now I guess I should look for something like the Prior 4WD or ATV, and the Donek Axxes? . Any suggestions on these types of boards? thx again
