I've not ridden the press, I'm a huge slingshot supporter though. I like the way the press feels, and looks, I just think that if you're going to go flex, you need to go all the way to get all the advantages of the board. The press is a whole lot stiffer than a slingshot. in saying that, the slingshot stays strong on edge, and isn't to slippery at all. it takes a couple sets to get the feel of it, but once you've got it down, there's nothing better! I've ridden the roam a few times, and it's a fun board, I just couldn't do it all the time. It's a bit to narrow for me, the Slingshot is wide and stable, and there are no fins which makes it super slippery and hard to control any sketch landings.
