I need recommendations! The forum spinster Is my dream board, but I hear they are done with the forum brand after this year. I am looking at a roxy xoxo or Ollie pop or a gnu velvet guru. I want a 141 or 143 with soft flex and hybrid camber. Also the xoxo is asymmetric twin....but I am goofy....so if I ride on the heel side...the wider end faces fwd. If I switch my toe to the heel side...I am thinking that defeats the purpose of ease on the switch ride....am I off base? Are there boards that cater to the goofy park riders?

Any twin can be flipped around. Just do that :) Bottom is the top, top is the bottom, you have your stance, and asymmetrical edges are lined up in the right place. As a fellow goofy rider its not a big deal... now if it was like a tapered board with an asymmetric sidecut theyd probably have to build two boards. One for regular riders and one for goofy riders. Thats probably why you dont see many of those :)

Thanks for the advice. I ride a twin now so it's no biggy...but all this new tech has me overwhelmed shopping for a new one. Much love for my goofy riders!
