def 83 if your getting a new deck wait 3 more weeks and get an integrated 5.0w

Don't do that 250$ Is really too much for one deck and its not even integrated plus shipping to AUS would kill.
When You can get an integrated flight deck for 130.

 

[Cheezel]

ok im going to think about it

its all preference bro i ride 81.5 and i rode 83 for about 5 months and i always hated it but if your more of a flow rider and you ride a lot of minis and just going big without tech yea get 83 because its more comfortable and you have more space but if you ride a lot of tech and street get an 81.5 because the steeper the headtube angle the harder it is to whip cause i cant double flat with with 83 and 81.5 or anything less i can no problem but try riding some other peoples decks to see which one you prefer

< 81.5 is good for everything
83 is too far forward for me personally.

it's up to you. Whips / bris are awkward on >83 angles.
