hey guys!

which is the better board?!

depends on your style I guess. they are both killer boards. I like the smooth, predictable feel of a finless Ricky G. The board is loose when you want it to be and tracks great when you ask it to. Not as much vertical pop as the Parks but that has almost as much to do with the rider than the board

I have never ridden Ricky G's board but I have ridden my brothers Parks 138 (my wife has the Parks 133).

It depends on your riding style. The Parks board is difficult to get the pop until you figure it out then it is awesome. It tracks extremely well if you like a board that does that. If you are like me and like an extremely loose, snowboardy feel, then I would try another board (finless premier).

Hope that helps.

The current Ricky G. is a extremely similar design to the '03 Premier, only with a little more pop IMHO.

Parks are terrible boards to progress on
Get the Ricky G it will help you progress and you will save some $$.
