    2.5k opens up a lot of doors to what you could afford! if it was me i'd be getting a Stab Deelux, or maybe a second hand supreme. but thats because i just love the way konas ride.

    you need to try some out

    Clearly they all were raped by hordes of capitalist, communist, black Jewish liberals with excellent dance moves and gigantic penises.

    To be honest, for œ2.5k you're not going to go far wrong, no matter what you choose. its going to be more a case of finding which one you like that rides best [:)]

    Something round here tastes bad. Could be plain old bad taste.
