jett rides like the premier, angel rides like the shane. if youve ridden either of those boards it should give you an idea

The Jett is going to be a slower board then the angel. My wife rides the 130 angel and really likes it, I ride the team which is the male version of the angel. It edges well and has lots of speed and the continuous rocker makes for soft landings. The Jett is 3-stage so it will be more poppy and if I remember it has a center beam in the the board for soft landings. The Melissa I would say is a combination between the two.

I have riden both the Team/Angel and Trip/Melissa and I like the landings and pop better on the Trip than the Team. My wife rides the Melissa 130 and it is her favorite board and just loves to ride it. What level of rider would you say you are and what is your current board?

I would suggest the Melissa, it had a more rounded edge, not as easy to face plant as the Angel and the performance will allow you to ride at any level. I also started my wife riding finless so she is having fun with surface spins and learning good edging technique.
