I am having an absolutely hard time trying to pick my next board purchase. I have looked for hours and hours at these two boards and I can not pick which one I ultimately want. From what I can see the ATK Banana might have all pluses from the original Skate Banana design with better control and the same catch free playfulness. But I truely wonder if there is really that noticeable of a difference to pay more for the ATK Banana. I am thinking I might just go with the Skate banana since they are so similar besides the very mild camber outside the rocker on the ATK Banana as opposed to the continuous rocker of the Skate Banana. If you have any inputs please feel free to leave a comment.

attack banana is going to be a bit stiffer flexing as well so its going to hold up better outside of the park than the regular nanner. A trusted source told me the Attacknanner was one of the most fun boards he'd ever ridden. Just some banana-food for thought.

Ok great thanks for the information. Since I basically just ride park and hit jumps, rails, boxes and all the green/blues/blacks would I be best off with the Skate Banana? I was also tired in my decision with the Ride Buckwild as well. I know for sure with my riding style these three boards are my definite picks. no i just need to narrow it down to the one. The Buckwild and Skate Banana are the same price so its just down to which performs better and is a better company with a little better quality.

nothing performs "better" or is a "better" board. they are just two different snowboards, one of which you will probably like more, but either will work and you will have fun on them. both are built well so don't worry about that.
between the two libs, I would go with the skate banana for your purpose, unless you know you want a board with more natural edge hold, a little more stability, and a little more pop from the slight cambered areas. that said, the banana tens to be a little more tuned to the type of riding you described, so again, I would suggest that between the two.
