    it sounds like the lofi is maybe just a little less aggressive, not that the feelgood IS aggressive.. thats all i can really say, and its still somewhat a guess.

    neither board is heavy, but the feelgood should be a little bit lighter because thats kinda how the cores/etc work when you go higher end.  but i doubt its going to affect anything while riding.

    My personal take: If you're getting a Rome the lady needs a Rome too.

    Rocker or positive camber?  That's always a tough call for anyone to make.  I still stand by people should demo rocker before pulling the trigger...it's not going to please everyone.

    Yeah, that's my thought, and hers, too. She seems very keen on having something a bit more playful, which leads me to think the Lo-Fi would fit her better than the Blue.

    As for rockered or not, I'm pretty much thinking the same thing. Although we'd both love something different, it's probably best to try it out first.

    The numbers on the rocker of the Lofi aren't all that intense so I don't think it would be a dramatic change, but you still never know.

    If time is not an issue I'd say just hold off on it, but if it is stick with what you know works and get a positive camber version.
