hi guys i'm looking for a dedicated freestyle board something around 100 lirtres if anyones looking to sell or knows someone it would be apprieated. I'm living in sydney and willing to travel but not to far unless you can send it. so if you got pic i'll be happy to see.
thanks johnny
I'm certainly no ricardo, but I like this
and definately this
the JP is lighter even though it is bigger, more turny, and more comfy on the ankles due to the more domed deck, and I think it might be a tad faster than the tabou
the tabou slides backwards more predictably, has more nose rocker for waves, and has many footstrap options, and has more flotation in the tail for staying in the footstraps off the plane. great all rounder imho
i have the 99 JP freestyle and had the 97 litre tabou for over 2 years, but was coming to the end of it's life for the way i was treating it
your whipped smiley actually bears a strong resemblance! 
and
i thought i told you my jp90fs is not for sale hairy. 
thanks guys thoses jps are nice i would like to buy one but i'm poor
i need second hand boards
the tabou 3s I had was a 2006 model and had a different paint job but the same shape. i don't think anything has changed in the last 2 years as the shape was popular with the euros
the 2008 JP's are significantly lighter but maybe you're unlikely to find a cheap 2008 one
a s/h fanatic skate should be good. there were a lot kicking around a couple of years back
Fanatic Skate 2002 -2005
JP Freestyle 2006 -2008
Tabou freestyle 2006 - 2008
starboard freesex 2004
starboard trance 2005
lots and lots of freestyle-wave combos kicking about here in SE QLD so many will be coming up for sale S/H over next 6-12 months as many folk update. As freestyle is a bit of a specialist genre you're probably more likely to find a freestyle-wave combo second hand. The dedicated freestyle definitely helps make learning the moves easier and planes that little bit earlier, but any freestyle/freestyle-wave board with soft rails down to the tail and decent width with a small sub 25cm fin will be suitable for freestyle
my 82 litre JP real world wave has soft rails all the way and is 58cm wide @ about 5.5kg, and spins/slides no probs at all for a wave board. this is easily a high wind freestyle boardhttp://www.jp-australia.com/2008/index.php?id=39
I have an 2006 F2 Chilli I am thinking of selling but you would need to get it freighted across.
Its 2 seasons old and had a good workout.
I was thinking under 1k
PM me if you are interested
for $1500 have a look around the Sydney shops, there is a good chance you might pick up a brand new board that is last years model. But for that you will get a very good second board.
I had a RRD Twin Tip for a while, great board, easy to ride and early plaining. Lots of fun.
