The Pure's have always been dope. I'm riding the '06 now. They are just older Absolute's with new graphics. The Pure, Flame or Absolute will be easy for you to transition to. IMO the newer the Absolute shape the more the pop goes up instead of out. They have gotten slower and poppier (is that a word) over the years. The year I went from the '05 Absolute (liked that board a lot) to the '06 Absolute Plat (liked that board better) to the '06 Pure (loved how fast it was). They have all been great boards. Also for honorable mention: the Substance is sick as well, but lands pretty hard.
