gnartifact!

well ive had the artifact all season, and yea, its an awesome super fun super skidlly board, real easy to press, good jibbination, but if you actually rtide alot, this board might not be the best choice, i ride about 4 days a week, and my artifact is getting destroyed. the top sheet is delamming everywhere, theres chips in it, the edges get dented and ruined really easy, esppecially if you like to jib a few rocks, mabe throw some tap 180s, my friend also has the arty, and he is literally missing a 3 inch chunk of his edge, and his board is basically demolished. im tryin to keep mine for another season, because im broke as a joke mhmmm, idk much about the www or manual, id say get the www, but i think its a little stiffer

yeah i would have to agree with you, the board is a blast to ride, and the edges are great for jibbing. However, because the edges are copper they are easily destroyed, my board is missing entire chunks of edge, and im pretty sure that this board will only last one season.

artifact

i have a 08 machine which is pretty much the wide version of the artifact minus the bronze edges, and its a super fun board, poppy, smooth ride. super fun on rails

Rome Artifact all day, hands down. Bronze edges that are softer than steel, giving you a smoother slide from cutting down steel on steel connectivity from the WWW or Manual. Impact Base, which is a more dense base material make up, so it reduces the wear and tear from rail, rock and jib abuse. But....the WWW is made by a ski-company owned by Jarvin...and...the Manual has stupid graphics and will probably get pressure cracks the first day you use it so.......yea dude, tough choice.

forester is a biased piece of shit.

yes the artifact is an excellent jib board. however i find forester's reply amusing considering he doesn't know anything about the other boards. the www is a great jib board thats soft forgiving and affordable. the graphics are loud and vibrant and i dont know what k2 being a ski company has to do anything. ud think a company whos been making skis for 80 years probably knows how to construct a snowboard considering its virtually the same thing. and why he says the manual will get pressure cracks the first day u ride it i have no clue because he is talking out of his ass with no valid point to back anything up. and the graphics is all personal preference. and i dont care how dense of a base u have, ur board is going to get chewed up if ur jibbing it and riding it on rocks. and if u want to put such a strong emphasis on bronze edges, flow makes bronze edge boards as well. not that im a particularly big fan of flow, but im just tossing it out there. they exist. any of these boards would be a reasonable choice. theyre all just cheap jib boards. ull be fine on any of the three. oh, the evil twin is nice too. its super fast but stiffer than the others. however, ive heard in springtime slush the triple base makes it hard to quickly gain an edge.

artifact

prob the best board i have ever ridden, super fun, really buttery and soft, and great for rails and all types of jibs, and it can also hold its own going at high speeds, i would say go for the rome all day
