I know this post comes up 5 times a day but im really stuck and i want to make the right decision. I am buyin a new board and cant decide what I want i weigh about 165 and skim NJ. I'm pretty decent but not amazing.
I'm stuck between
Used but pretty good shape paulo large
used large exile
or a used by a pro M slotstik
I have a large exile used if you decide to go with that. pm me for more info, idk if i want to sell it though. im switching to a slotstik.
Medium Slot is going to be mad small. I have a medium Slot, and it's somewhat small for me and I weight like 145-150. Slots run smaller than other boards.

if it was used by a pro than its obvious
that right there will make you over 6000 times better
Slotstik Med Provac - 51.25" x 19.25" x 5/8"
Exile Large Hybrid - 52.50" x 20.60" x 5/8"
Pretty big size difference in the two.

Its not a pro vac but it has similar dementions i think, its a probaord.
Is the large Exile 3/4 and hybrid? If so, for NJ conditions go with that large Exile.
a paulo is gonna be like a 55 inch board. and that is hyooge, so id go with the other exile if its a hybrid
the question is do you need a large or a medium. then narrow it down from there
it doenst make sense to be looking at two boards that are two different sized and totally different weight classes

Yeah take the 3/4" for NJ if you can get it and a large Exile might be a boat for you.

go with the exile, because it's not too small for you and exile continues to put tons into the sport whereas that other company, i won't name names, hasn't done much of anything in the past few years except sell boards to japan and some online retailers.

he's buying it used so while thats a valid point for new boards kinda doesn't make a difference in his situation (assuming he is buying them from people)
