Hi everyone,
I'm planning to buy a new board coming week and ended up in doubt between these 2. Brunotti or eleveight, has anyone tried these boards and and recommend? I'm a 82k intermediate rider starting to properly jump.
Thank you

I have a Youri Pro and it is a decent board. More of a freestyle board than a free ride board with a bit of flex to it. I have the 140 and weight about the same as you. It is good for what it is. My biggest complaint though is the inserts not being deep enough. They are set in a recessed channel on the outside that Brunotti has to use really shallow inserts for. So your not as secure due to the fact that there are only a few threads into inserts. Other than that like most boards it will do what you want but it is geared more to freestyle and load and pop tricks.
