In Jan/feb will I go to Thailand to start my journey on longboard. I will go from Chiang Mai-Singapore.

Nice to see you Jim!

That's a tasty looking set up there

Some new sponsors:

Dialect, http://www.dialect.se
Hälsokostgrossisten, http://www.halsokostgrossisten.se
Stoked Skateboards, http://www.stokedskateboards.com

I´ve been offer full sponsorship from Rollsrolls, Subsonicskateboards and Hackbrett. Hackbrett will make me a custom board if I want.
Rayne has been offering me 40% off on a dee-lite.

Anyone out there how can help me in which board I shall choose? Have someone been riding subsonics for long-distance?

if scott is offering full sponsorship, get a raven. All scotts boards are lovely.

Sheldon skated a raven prototype in New Zealand

I talked to Hackbrett yesterday and this is what he said.

we dont build lowriders ourselves, we could propably get landyachtz to sponsor an evo or a dually or a spud or a switch. we could then make it light by replacing some of the wood with foam and carbon wrap it. we can make them even lighter than the carbon evo.

What do you guys think about that, is it a good idea or should I go for a raven or a rollsrolls woody?

Raven. The board is tried and tested. Though, if you can get a subsidised Deelite, consider that.
