Extreme vs Normal

I am looking at boards for this season and need to know, why is a sintered base better than an extruded base? I need a board for mostly rails and boxes, but still hold up good on medium/large jumps. So, is a stairmater extreme noticably better than a normal stairmaster.

sintered bases are a lot toug

sintered bases are a lot tougher and faster on snow but harder to repair. extruded is easier to scratch but a lot cheaper and a lot easier to repair. most jib boards are extruded because they're going to get scratched up no matter what.
