I broke my player 143, I think I am going to go a bit smaller. Lookin at the gonzales from g.b. the absloute plat or the parks dna, any else I need to check out.

I don't have a suggestion, only an opinion. I just got an '05 Parks 140 and it rips. I'm sure the other boards are great boards too, I would recommend demoing all three and deciding for yourself.

i think I want a board with more pop, and less speed, what do i need to look for in rocker etc...

Slower, more pop. Hop on my bandwagon. Transcend, no question.
I hear there's a Transcend Platinum for 06. I'm in line already.

Hey Chris,

I have rode the Gonzales a handfull of times and its a really nice board.
Good pop and its got some flex to it to give you a good landing. Unless you ride with the center fin its way too loose though(for me any way).
Its has a good feel on edge, like its really stable.
