Hey everyone im in a  need of a new board before the season starts.
and i was looking for a park board, that has more of a flex and good popping,
right now i ride with K2 Fuse Wide 155 but the board feels too stiff for me

A board that is flex,pops easily, and is a all arounddd

Thank U

im not sure what your smoking melba but my capita horrorscope is flexy and has alot of pop.but since you just getting into park you should maybe take a look at something like a forum manuel(not very expensive,good flex and enough pop to keep you lapping around the park) or maybe a burton blunt...etc.

i ride the same deck, smoky... it's an exception to the rule in my opinion... hard to make a noodle insanely poppy (read my post; i claimed it's hard to put super soft and insane pop in the same board... that's why most jib noodles don't pop so well and are better adept at riding metal)... i love the pop on my horrorscope; it strikes a good balance, but you can't tell me a non-noodle setup won't have better pop in most situations.

Capita Horrorscope and Stairmaster have new jib core that the more pressure you load into it in an ollie or press the more pop comes out.
 soft, strong and Ollie over your friends.
 
I would take a look at the Stairmaster

were you fine on the 155? board length should be based on weight not height, by the way... if you were fine on the 155, i'm pretty sure the 156 will be fine... it's a centimeter.

YEAH RIGHT!
